STEP 1: Distribute 76 through the parenthesis
-152x-228=19x+6

STEP 2: Move variable to the left side and change its sign
-152x-19x-228=6

STEP 3: Collect the like terms
-171x=6+228

STEP 4: Divide both sides of the equation by -171
x = -26/19

SO... THE ANSWER IS
x = -26/19 or x = 1 7/19 or x = -1.36842
these are three ways you can write the answer for this equation
