Question

2=4x-6\left(x+1\right)
Solve the equation
x=-4
Evaluate
2=4x-6\left(x+1\right)
Swap the sides of the equation
4x-6\left(x+1\right)=2
Move the expression to the left side
4x-6\left(x+1\right)-2=0

Evaluate
4x-6x
Collect like terms by calculating the sum or difference of their coefficients
\left(4-6\right)x
Subtract the numbers
-2x
-2x-6-2
Subtract the numbers
-2x-8
-2x-8=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
-2x=0+8
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
-2x=8
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
2x=-8
Divide both sides
\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{-8}{2}
Divide the numbers
x=\frac{-8}{2}
