6x+12-2\left(2x-2\right)-3\left(x-1\right)=0
Use the distributive property to multiply 6 by x+2.
6x+12-4x+4-3\left(x-1\right)=0
Use the distributive property to multiply -2 by 2x-2.
2x+12+4-3\left(x-1\right)=0
Combine 6x and -4x to get 2x.
2x+16-3\left(x-1\right)=0
Add 12 and 4 to get 16.
2x+16-3x+3=0
Use the distributive property to multiply -3 by x-1.
-x+16+3=0
