Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-5 - 2(3x - 4) = 3(x - 4) + 6

-5 - 6x + 8 = 3x - 12 + 6

-6x + 3 = 3x - 6

3 = 9x - 6

9 = 9x

1 = x

Answer: x =1

Step-by-step explanation:

-5-2(3x-4) = 3(x-4) +6   Apply the distributive property to break it down.

-5-6x+8 = 3x -12 +6   Combine like terms

-6x + 3 = 3x - 6        Add 6x to both sides

+6x         +6x

3 = 9x  -6       Add 6 to both sides

+6        +6

9=9x             Divide both sides by 9

x= 1
