Hey there!

-5(-3x - 6)

= -5(-3x) -5(-6)

= 5(3x) + 5(6)

= 15x + 30

Therefore, your answer is: 15x + 30

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

The value of x is 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to make both fractions into 1 fraction :

\frac{x}{3} + \frac{x}{6} = \frac{7}{2}

\frac{x \times 2}{3 \times 2} + \frac{x}{6} = \frac{7}{2}

\frac{2x}{6} + \frac{x}{6} = \frac{7}{2}

\frac{3x}{6} = \frac{7}{2}

Next, you have to do cross-multiplication and solve the value of x :

\frac{3x}{6} = \frac{7}{2}

3x(2) = 7(6)

6x = 42

x = 42 \div 6

x = 7
