Simplifying
2x(x + 3) = 5x(x + -1)

Reorder the terms:
2x(3 + x) = 5x(x + -1)
(3 * 2x + x * 2x) = 5x(x + -1)
(6x + 2x2) = 5x(x + -1)

Reorder the terms:
6x + 2x2 = 5x(-1 + x)
6x + 2x2 = (-1 * 5x + x * 5x)
6x + 2x2 = (-5x + 5x2)

Solving
6x + 2x2 = -5x + 5x2

Solving for variable 'x'.

Reorder the terms:
6x + 5x + 2x2 + -5x2 = -5x + 5x2 + 5x + -5x2

Combine like terms: 6x + 5x = 11x
11x + 2x2 + -5x2 = -5x + 5x2 + 5x + -5x2

Combine like terms: 2x2 + -5x2 = -3x2
11x + -3x2 = -5x + 5x2 + 5x + -5x2

Reorder the terms:
11x + -3x2 = -5x + 5x + 5x2 + -5x2

Combine like terms: -5x + 5x = 0
11x + -3x2 = 0 + 5x2 + -5x2
11x + -3x2 = 5x2 + -5x2

Combine like terms: 5x2 + -5x2 = 0
11x + -3x2 = 0

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), 'x'.
x(11 + -3x) = 0

Subproblem 1

Set the factor 'x' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying x = 0 Solving x = 0 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Simplifying x = 0

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(11 + -3x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 11 + -3x = 0 Solving 11 + -3x = 0 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-11' to each side of the equation. 11 + -11 + -3x = 0 + -11 Combine like terms: 11 + -11 = 0 0 + -3x = 0 + -11 -3x = 0 + -11 Combine like terms: 0 + -11 = -11 -3x = -11 Divide each side by '-3'. x = 3.666666667 Simplifying x = 3.666666667

Solution

x = {0, 3.666666667}
