3x+6=6\left(x-4\right)
Variable x cannot be equal to 4 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x-4.
3x+6=6x-24
Use the distributive property to multiply 6 by x-4.
3x+6-6x=-24
Subtract 6x from both sides.
-3x+6=-24
Combine 3x and -6x to get -3x.
-3x=-24-6
Subtract 6 from both sides.
-3x=-30
Subtract 6 from -24 to get -30.
x=\frac{-30}{-3}
Divide both sides by -3.
x=10
Divide -30 by -3 to get 10.
