Answer:
x = -4
Explanation:
Simplifying
6x + 6 = 3x + -6
Reorder the terms:
6 + 6x = 3x + -6
Reorder the terms:
6 + 6x = -6 + 3x
Solving
6 + 6x = -6 + 3x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.
6 + 6x + -3x = -6 + 3x + -3x
Combine like terms: 6x + -3x = 3x
6 + 3x = -6 + 3x + -3x
Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0
6 + 3x = -6 + 0
6 + 3x = -6
Add '-6' to each side of the equation.
6 + -6 + 3x = -6 + -6
Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0
0 + 3x = -6 + -6
3x = -6 + -6
Combine like terms: -6 + -6 = -12
3x = -12
Divide each side by '3'.
x = -4
