Answer:

6 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

first, we simplify the parenthesis by distributing the 4

3 = 4(x - 2) + 5 - 3x

3 = 4x - 8 + 5 - 3x

then, you add like terms

3 = x - 3

then add 3 to both sides to isolate x

6 = x

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply both terms in the parenthesis by the factor 4:

3 = 4(x-2) + 5 - 3x

3 = (4*x) - (4*2)   + 5 - 3x

then simplify

3 = 4x - 8 + 5 - 3x

rearrange terms

3 = 4x - 3x - 8 + 5

subtract 3x from 4x: (4x - 3x = 1x, which is just x)

3 = 1x - 3

3 = x - 3

then add 3 to both sides:

6 = x

x = 6
