From the image, we have the equation:

3x - 6 = -2x + 4

Let's solve for x:

3x - 6 = -2x + 4

Add 2x to both sides of the equation:

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

3x + 2x - 6 = 4

5x - 6 = 4

Add 6 to both sides:

5x - 6 + 6 = 4 + 6

5x = 10

Divide both sides by 5:


\begin{gathered} (5x)/(5)=(10)/(5) \\ \\ x\text{ = 2} \end{gathered}

ANSWER:

x = 2
