-6(x–2)+4(3–6x)=-36
Simplify by using the Distributive property
-6x+12 + 12-24x = -36
Combine like terms.
-30x + 24 = -36
Subtract 24 from both sides

-30x = -60
Divide each side by -30
x = 2
Plug in the value of x into the original equation to see if it's correct.
-6(2–2)+4(3–6(2))=-36
-6(0) + 4(-9) = -36
0 + -36 = -36
-36 = -36. It checks out. So x = 2 is correct.
