Answer:
Explanation:
Simplifying
6x + -2 = 3x + -6
Reorder the terms:
-2 + 6x = 3x + -6
Reorder the terms:
-2 + 6x = -6 + 3x
Solving
-2 + 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.
-2 + 6x + -3x = -6 + 3x + -3x
Combine like terms: 6x + -3x = 3x
-2 + 3x = -6 + 3x + -3x
Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0
-2 + 3x = -6 + 0
-2 + 3x = -6
Add '2' to each side of the equation.
-2 + 2 + 3x = -6 + 2
Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0
0 + 3x = -6 + 2
3x = -6 + 2
Combine like terms: -6 + 2 = -4
3x = -4
Divide each side by '3'.
x = -1.333333333
Simplifying
x = -1.333333333
