Answer:

x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we distribute on both sides

6x+6-5x=8+2x-2

simplify

x+6=2x+6

subtract x from both sides

6=x+6

subtract 6 from both sides

x=0

Answer:

x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

6 ( x + 1 ) -5x = 8 + 2 ( x - 1 ) (Distribute)

6x + 6 - 5x = 8 + 2x - 2 (Rearrange expression)

6x - 2x - 5x = 8 - 6 - 2 (Combine like terms)

-1x = 0 (Divide)

x = 0
