%286-3x%29-2%281%2Bx%29=6x Start with the given equation



6-3x-2-2x=6x Distribute


-5x%2B4=6x Combine like terms on the left side


-5x=6x-4Subtract 4 from both sides


-5x-6x=-4 Subtract 6x from both sides


-11x=-4 Combine like terms on the left side


x=%28-4%29%2F%28-11%29 Divide both sides by -11 to isolate x



x=4%2F11 Reduce

--------------------------------------------------------------
Answer:
So our answer is x=4%2F11 (which is approximately x=0.36364 in decimal form)
