5(2x-3) - 6x < 9
10x - 15 - 6x < 9
10x - 6x < 9 + 15
4x < 24
x < 24/4 which gives us x < 6

solve for x: 5(2x-3)-6x<9
5(2x-3)-6x<9
10x-15<9
10x<9+15
10x<24
x<2.4 or 12/5 or 2/2/5
x is< than 2.4 but not= to 2.4
therefore x=3

Use distributive property:
10x-15-6x<9
4x-15<9
4x<24
x<6
Check:
5(2(6)-3)-6(6)=9
5(12-3)-36=9
5(9)-36=9
45-36=9
9=9
I hope this helps!

–3(x – 3) + 8(x – 3) = x – 9 distribute -3x + 9 + 8x - 24 = x - 9 combine like words 5x - 15 = x - 9 subtract x for the two factors 4x - 15 = -9 upload 15 for the two factors 4x = 6 divide 4 for the two factors x = 3/2
