Question 145322


{{{(6-3x)-2(1+x)=6x}}} Start with the given equation




{{{6-3x-2-2x=6x}}} Distribute



{{{-5x+4=6x}}} Combine like terms on the left side



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



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



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



{{{x=(-4)/(-11)}}} Divide both sides by -11 to isolate x




{{{x=4/11}}} Reduce


--------------------------------------------------------------

Answer:

So our answer is {{{x=4/11}}}  (which is approximately {{{x=0.36364}}} in decimal form)
