Answer:

The answer for this is.. x= 5/3 the decimal is x=1.66666..

Step-by-step explanation:

Expand -3(x-2) : -3x+6

x-3x+6=4(x-1)

Add similar elements: x-3x= -2x

-2x+6=4(x-1)

Expand 4(x-1): 4x-4

-2x+6= 4x-4

Subtract 6 from both sides

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

Simplify

-2x-4x-10

Subtract 4x from both sides

-2x-4x=4x-10-4x

Simplify

-6x=-10

-6x/-6 = -10/-6

so the answer is x-5/3
