2\left(3x-2\right)-60=9-6\left(x+7\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 12, the least common multiple of 6,4,2.
6x-4-60=9-6\left(x+7\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by 3x-2.
6x-64=9-6\left(x+7\right)
Subtract 60 from -4 to get -64.
6x-64=9-6x-42
Use the distributive property to multiply -6 by x+7.
6x-64=-33-6x
Subtract 42 from 9 to get -33.
6x-64+6x=-33
Add 6x to both sides.
12x-64=-33
Combine 6x and 6x to get 12x.
12x=-33+64
Add 64 to both sides.
12x=31
Add -33 and 64 to get 31.
x=\frac{31}{12}
Divide both sides by 12.
