To solve the given equation, let's first expand both sides:
(5x - 1)(2 - x) = (x - 3)(2 - 5x)
Expanding the left side:
(5x)(2) + (5x)(-x) + (-1)(2) + (-1)(-x) = (x)(2) + (x)(-5x) + (-3)(2) + (-3)(-5x)
10x - 5x^2 - 2 + x = 2x - 5x^2 - 6 + 15x
Combining like terms and simplifying:
10x - 5x^2 - 2 + x - 2x + 5x^2 + 6 - 15x = 0
-6x - 2 = 0
Rearranging the equation:
-6x = 2
Dividing by -6:
x = 2 / -6
Simplifying:
x = -1/3
Therefore, the solution to the given equation is x = -1/3.
