I NEED HELP WITH QUESTION 2 ONLY (GIVING BRAINIEST) 50 points Is x = 6 a solution to the equation 5(x – 3) = x + 13?
Follow the steps to find out.

1. Rewrite the equation 5(x – 3) = x + 13 with 6 substituted for x. Write a question mark over the equal sign to show that you're testing to see if the equation is true. ANSWER: 6 (incorrect solution)
Steps:
Calculation: 5(6 - 3) = 6 + 13
Multiplication: 5 x 3 = 19
Checking the equality: 15 + 19
So there for the solution is not 6

2. Simplify both sides. Show your work.

3. Is x = 6 a solution to the equation? Why or why not? ANSWER: 6 is not the solution
Solving for x:
5(x – 3) = x + 13
5x - 15 = x + 13
5x - x = 13 + 15
4x = 28
x = 28/4
x = 7
