Answer:

x = 6 or C) 6

Explanation:

Step 1: We will subtract 2x from both sides.

−3x + 6 − 2x = 2x − 24 − 2x

To understand a bit better: -3x - 2x = -5x and 2x - 2x = 0 so it will end up looking like this:

−5x + 6 = −24

Step 2: We will subtract 6 from both sides.

−5x + 6 − 6 = −24 − 6

−5x = −30

Step 3: We will divide both sides by -5.

−5x/−5 = −30/−5

Both will equal to positive 6 so it is your x, I hope this somewhat helped you better understand the equation!
