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

Evaluate

2 = 6 (x - 3) \times 4 - 5 x

Multiply the terms

2 = 24 (x - 3) - 5 x

Swap the sides of the equation

24 (x - 3) - 5 x = 2

Move the expression to the left side

24 (x - 3) - 5 x - 2 = 0

Calculate

More Steps

19 x - 74 = 0

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

19 x = 0 + 74

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

19 x = 74

Divide both sides

\frac{19 x}{19} = \frac{74}{19}

Solution

x = \frac{74}{19}
