Solution

15(2-x)-5(x+6)1-3x=10or 30-15x-5x-301-3x=10or -20x1-3x=10or 10-30x=-20x [After cross multiplication]or -20x+30x=10or 10x=10or x=1Thus, x=1 is the solution of the given equation.Check:Substituting x=1 in the given equation, we get:L.H.S.=15(2-1)-5(1+6)1-3(1)=15-35-2=-20-2=10R.H.S.=10 L.H.S.=R.H.S. for x=1.
