Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x + 1 ) =2x - 5                           This is the way the equation reads. Remove the brackets.

3x + 3 = 2x - 5                            Subtract 2x from both sides

-2x         -2x

x + 3 = - 5                                   Subtract 3 from both sides.

   -3      -3

x = - 8
