The solution

You have entered [src]
1 - 2*(5 - 2*x) = -x - 3
$$1 - 2 \left(5 - 2 x\right) = - x - 3$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
1-2*(5-2*x) = -x-3

Expand brackets in the left part
1-2*5+2*2*x = -x-3

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-9 + 4*x = -x-3

Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$4 x = 6 - x$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$5 x = 6$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 5
x = 6 / (5)

We get the answer: x = 6/5
