Answer:
x = - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]\frac{2x+5}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{18}[/tex]
Multiply both sides by 18 to clear the fractions
3(2x + 5) = x ← distribute left side
6x + 15 = x ( subtract x from both sides )
5x + 15 = 0 ( subtract 15 from both sides )
5x = - 15 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = - 3
