15x-19-13x-\left(-15\right)=25-\left(17-15x\right)
To find the opposite of 13x-15, find the opposite of each term.
15x-19-13x+15=25-\left(17-15x\right)
The opposite of -15 is 15.
2x-19+15=25-\left(17-15x\right)
Combine 15x and -13x to get 2x.
2x-4=25-\left(17-15x\right)
Add -19 and 15 to get -4.
2x-4=25-17-\left(-15x\right)
To find the opposite of 17-15x, find the opposite of each term.
2x-4=25-17+15x
The opposite of -15x is 15x.
2x-4=8+15x
Subtract 17 from 25 to get 8.
2x-4-15x=8
Subtract 15x from both sides.
-13x-4=8
Combine 2x and -15x to get -13x.
-13x=8+4
Add 4 to both sides.
-13x=12
Add 8 and 4 to get 12.
x=\frac{12}{-13}
Divide both sides by -13.
x=-\frac{12}{13}
Fraction \frac{12}{-13} can be rewritten as -\frac{12}{13} by extracting the negative sign.
