Answer 1

`5\left(x-3\right)-4\left(x-3\right)=x-3`

Explanation:

Given the expression

`5\left(x-3\right)-4\left(x-3\right)`

solving the expression

`5\left(x-3\right)-4\left(x-3\right)=5x\:-\:15\:-\:4x\:+\:12`

`= x - 3`

Thus, the equivalent expression is

`5\left(x-3\right)-4\left(x-3\right)=x-3`
