{{{4x+6-7x=-46}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{-3x+6=-46}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{-3x=-46-6}}} Subtract {{{6}}} from both sides.



{{{-3x=-52}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{x=(-52)/(-3)}}} Divide both sides by {{{-3}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.



{{{x=52/3}}} Reduce.



----------------------------------------------------------------------


Answer:


So the solution is {{{x=52/3}}} which approximates to {{{x=17.333}}}.
