Answer:

There is no solution in the end. This equation is invalid, the left and right sides are not equal, therefore there is no solution.

Explanation:

1. 2 (3x - 5) = 6x - 4

(Distributive property)

2. 6x-10=6x-4

(Add 10 to both sides)

3. 6x-10+10=6x-4+10

(Simplify)

4. 6x=6x+6

(Subtract 6x from both sides)

5. 6x-6x=6x+6-6x

(Simplify)

6. 0=6

Done! Hope this helps :)
