7. $6(x - 1) = 2(x + 3)$

Question

  1. $6(x - 1) = 2(x + 3)$

Explanation:

Step1: Expand both sides

$6x - 6 = 2x + 6$

Step2: Subtract $2x$ from both sides

$6x - 2x - 6 = 2x - 2x + 6$
$4x - 6 = 6$

Step3: Add 6 to both sides

$4x - 6 + 6 = 6 + 6$
$4x = 12$

Step4: Divide by 4 on both sides

$\frac{4x}{4} = \frac{12}{4}$
$x = 3$

Answer:

$x=3$
