Step-by-step explanation:

Step

[tex]x = - \frac{8}{11} [/tex]

1:Expand

[tex]−3x−6=5x+5[/tex]

Step 2:Add both sides 3x

[tex]−6=5x+5+3x[/tex]

Step 3:Subtract 5 from both sides.

[tex]−6−5=8x

[/tex]

Step 4:Simplify -6-5−6−5 to -11−11.

[tex]−11=8x

[/tex]

Step 5:Divide both sides by 88.

[tex]x=− \frac{8}{11}

[/tex]

I hope it helps you!!!
