\sqrt{3}x-2\sqrt{3}-2x\sqrt{2}=2\left(x\sqrt{3}-3-x\sqrt{2}\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply \sqrt{3} by x-2.
\sqrt{3}x-2\sqrt{3}-2x\sqrt{2}-2\left(x\sqrt{3}-3-x\sqrt{2}\right)=0
Subtract 2\left(x\sqrt{3}-3-x\sqrt{2}\right) from both sides.
\sqrt{3}x-2\sqrt{3}-2x\sqrt{2}-2x\sqrt{3}+6+2\sqrt{2}x=0
Use the distributive property to multiply -2 by x\sqrt{3}-3-x\sqrt{2}.
-\sqrt{3}x-2\sqrt{3}-2x\sqrt{2}+6+2\sqrt{2}x=0
Combine \sqrt{3}x and -2x\sqrt{3} to get -\sqrt{3}x.
-\sqrt{3}x-2\sqrt{3}+6=0
Combine -2x\sqrt{2} and 2\sqrt{2}x to get 0.
-\sqrt{3}x+6=2\sqrt{3}
Add 2\sqrt{3} to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
-\sqrt{3}x=2\sqrt{3}-6
Subtract 6 from both sides.
\left(-\sqrt{3}\right)x=2\sqrt{3}-6
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(-\sqrt{3}\right)x}{-\sqrt{3}}=\frac{2\sqrt{3}-6}{-\sqrt{3}}
Divide both sides by -\sqrt{3}.
x=\frac{2\sqrt{3}-6}{-\sqrt{3}}
Dividing by -\sqrt{3} undoes the multiplication by -\sqrt{3}.
x=2\sqrt{3}-2
Divide 2\sqrt{3}-6 by -\sqrt{3}.
