Answer:

x =  - [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x + 1) = - 2(x - 1) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides )

3x + 3 = - 2x + 2 ( add 2x to both sides )

5x + 3 = 2 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

5x = - 1 ( divide both sides by 5 )

[tex]\frac{5}{5}[/tex] x = [tex]\frac{-1}{5}[/tex] , then

x = - [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x + 1)= -2(x - 1)

open bracket

3x + 3 = -2x -2

collect like terms

3x + 2x = 2 -3

5x = -1

divide both sides by the co-efficient of x

[tex]\frac{5x}{5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-1}{5}[/tex]

x =  [tex]\frac{-1}{5}[/tex]
