15x-3-60x+3+30=8x-9+3x
The opposite of -3 is 3.
-45x-3+3+30=8x-9+3x
Combine 15x and -60x to get -45x.
-45x+30=8x-9+3x
Add -3 and 3 to get 0.
-45x+30=11x-9
Combine 8x and 3x to get 11x.
-45x+30-11x=-9
Subtract 11x from both sides.
-56x+30=-9
Combine -45x and -11x to get -56x.
-56x=-9-30
Subtract 30 from both sides.
-56x=-39
