Hello,

The answer is: x= -6/5

Now how did i get this?

Simplify Brakets: 2-2x-2=2(x+3)+x

Simplify 2-2x-2 to -2x
-2x=2(x+3)+x

Expand: -2x=2x+6+x

Now Simply 2x+6x to 3x+6
-2x=3x+6

Subtract 3x from both sides
-2x-3x=6

Simplify -2x-3x to -5x
-5x=6

Finally divide -5 on both sides
x= -6/5

Hope this helps!
