-2(3x-1)=2x

The answer is x=4

Distribute the left side. -6x+2=2x. Add 6x to both sides to get ride of the negative and combine like terms. 2=8x. Divide both sides by 8 to isolate the x. 2/8=x. Simplify the fraction. 1/4=x (:

You want to get 2 by itself so after you distribute -2x to 3 and then -2 to -1 you will get -6x+2=2x, add -6x so you will get 2=8x then divde 8 by 2 x=4

^^ that's 4x=1
