\text{Hey there!}


\mathsf{2 (3x + 2) = 6x}\\\\\mathsf{Distribute\ to\ solve (\ the\ formula\ is: a(b+c)=a(b+a(c)=ab+ac)}\\\\\mathsf{2(3x+2)=2(3x)+2(2)\rightarrow6x+4}\\\\\mathsf{New\ equation:6x+4=6}\\\\\mathsf{SUBTRACT\ by\ 6x\ on\ your\ sides}\\\\\mathsf{6x+4-4-6x=6x-6x}\\\\\mathsf{Cancel: 6x-6x\ because\ it\ gve\ us\ 0}


\mathsf{New\ equation: 4=0}\\\\\mathsf{SUBTRACT\ by\ 4\ on\ your\ sides}\\\\\mathsf{4-4=0-4}\\\\\mathsf{4-4=0}\\\\\mathsf{0-4=-4}\\\\\mathsf{0=-4}\\\\\boxed{\boxed{\mathsf{Thus,\ your\ answer\ is: \boxed{\mathsf{There\ is\ NO\ solutions }}}}}\checkmark
