We have the following equation given:


4(2x-1)-2=6+4(x+7)

We can start distributing the terms in the equation and we got:


8x-4-2=6+4x+28

8x-4-2=6+4x+28

Now we can simplify:


8x-6=4x+34

8x-6=4x+34

We can subtract in both sides of the equation 4x and we got:


4x-6=34

4x-6=34

And now we can add in both sides 6 and we got:


4x=40

4x=40

And finally dividing both sides by 4 we got:


x=(40)/(4)=10

x=40/4=10
