2x-3+15=-10x
Multiply both sides of the equation by 5.
2x+12=-10x
Add -3 and 15 to get 12.
2x+12+10x=0
Add 10x to both sides.
12x+12=0
Combine 2x and 10x to get 12x.
12x=-12
Subtract 12 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=\frac{-12}{12}
Divide both sides by 12.
x=-1
Divide -12 by 12 to get -1.
