Answer:
x = - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]6x=3(x - 4) - x [/tex]
Multiply the terms in the bracket
That's
[tex]6x = 3x - 12 - x \\ 6x = 2x - 12[/tex]
Subtract 2x from both sides of the equation
[tex]6x - 2x = 2x - 2x - 12 \\ 4x = - 12[/tex]
Divide both sides by 4
[tex] \frac{4x}{4} = - \frac{12}{4} [/tex]
We have the final answer as
x = - 3
