2x-3\left(3x-5\right)=36
Multiply both sides of the equation by 6, the least common multiple of 3,2.
2x-9x+15=36
Use the distributive property to multiply -3 by 3x-5.
-7x+15=36
Combine 2x and -9x to get -7x.
-7x=36-15
Subtract 15 from both sides.
-7x=21
Subtract 15 from 36 to get 21.
x=\frac{21}{-7}
Divide both sides by -7.
x=-3
Divide 21 by -7 to get -3.
