Answer:
[tex]x=-9[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]-5(x+6)=15[/tex]
Use the distributive property.
[tex]-5x-30=15[/tex]
Add [tex]+30[/tex] on both sides of the equation.
[tex]-5x=15+30[/tex]
[tex]-5x=45[/tex]
Divide [tex]-5[/tex] on both sides of the equation.
[tex]x=45/-5[/tex]
[tex]x=-9[/tex]
