First distribute 2(3-x)= 6-2x then 4+6=10 after that for so far it should look like 3x=10-2x then add +2x on both sides and it will be 5x=10 then divide 5 both sides and x=2

Answer:

x = 2

Explanation:

How to find "x"

3x = 4 + 2(3 - x) *Remove the parentheses*

3x = 4 + 6 - 2x *Calculate*

3x = 10 - 2x *Move the variable to the left*

3x + 2x = 10 *Collect the terms*

5x = 10 *Divide both sides*

x = 2

I hope the helped!!!
