You asked:

Solve the equation \(5 \left(x + 2\right) - 2 \left(3 - 4 x\right) = 3 \left(x + 5\right) - 4 \left(4 - x\right)\) for the variable \(x\).

MathBot Answer:

The solution is: \[x = - \frac{5}{6} = -0.8\overline{3}\]


\[\begin{aligned}13 x + 4 &= 7 x - 1\\6 x &= -5\\x &= - \frac{5}{6}\end{aligned}\]
