First, you would Distribute so then you would do 3 (2x-1) = 4x+5 and 6x-3 = 4x+5.
Then, you would need to Add 3 to both side of the equation. That would be 6x-3 = 4x+5 and 6x-3 = 4x+5+3.
Finally, you would simplify so add the numbers 6x-3+3 = 4x+5+3 and 6x = 4x+5+3 after that add the numbers 6x = 4x+8.
X=4
Your finall answer is 4.
I hope this helps you, I tried. :l

Anytime!

\[3(2x -1) = 4x +5\]
Distribute the 3 to the terms in the parenthesis
\[6x -3 = 4x +5\]
And now we wanna get all the like terms on one side of the equation we can do that by subtracting 4x from both sides of the equation and adding 3 to each side of the equation. Look:
\[2x=8\]
and you can see that x is = to 4 because 2(4)=8
