Answer:
x = 2/5 or 0.4
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 6 = 4(2 - 3x) - 8x
distribute
3x - 6 = 4*2 - 4*3x - 8
3x - 6 = 8 - 12x - 8
combine like terms
3x - 6 = -12x
add 12x to both sides of the equation
3x - 6 + 12x = -12x + 12x
3x - 6 + 12x = 0
15x - 6 = 0
add 6 to both sides of the equation
15x - 6 + 6 = 0 + 6
15x = 6
divide both sides of the equation by 15
15x/15 = 6/15
x = 6/15
x = 2/5
x = 0.4
