15x-20=5x+2-x+3
Combine 6x and -x to get 5x.
15x-20=5x+5-x
Add 2 and 3 to get 5.
15x-20-5x=5-x
Subtract 5x from both sides.
10x-20=5-x
Combine 15x and -5x to get 10x.
10x-20+x=5
Add x to both sides.
11x-20=5
Combine 10x and x to get 11x.
11x=5+20
Add 20 to both sides.
11x=25
Add 5 and 20 to get 25.
x=\frac{25}{11}
Divide both sides by 11.
