DETAILED EXPLANATION

Look at .
Eliminated similar terms highlight_red%28+x+%29,highlight_red%28+x+%29,highlight_red%28+-x+%29,highlight_red%28+2%2Ax+%29 replacing them with highlight_green%28+%281%2B1-1%2B2%29%2Ax+%29
It becomes highlight_green%28+%281%2B1-1%2B2%29%2Ax+%29=6.
Look at .
Added fractions or integers together
It becomes %28highlight_green%28+3+%29%29%2Ax=6.
Look at highlight_red%28+%28highlight_red%28+3+%29%29%2Ax+%29=6.
Remove unneeded parentheses around factor highlight_red%28+3+%29
It becomes highlight_green%28+3+%29%2Ax=6.
Look at 3%2Ax=highlight_red%28+6+%29.
Moved these terms to the left highlight_green%28+-6+%29
It becomes 3%2Ax-highlight_green%28+6+%29=0.
Look at highlight_red%28+3%2Ax-6+%29=0.
Solved linear equation highlight_red%28+3%2Ax-6=0+%29 equivalent to 3*x-6 =0
It becomes highlight_green%28+0+%29=0.
Result: 0=0
This is an equation! Solutions: x=2.
