$$-3x-(1.3x-6)-(6-4.8x)=2$$

Solve for x

$$x=4$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

To find the opposite of 1.3x-6, find the opposite of each term.

$$-3x-1.3x-\left(-6\right)-\left(6-4.8x\right)=2$$

The opposite of -6 is 6.

$$-3x-1.3x+6-\left(6-4.8x\right)=2$$

Combine -3x and -1.3x to get -4.3x.

$$-4.3x+6-\left(6-4.8x\right)=2$$

To find the opposite of 6-4.8x, find the opposite of each term.

$$-4.3x+6-6-\left(-4.8x\right)=2$$

The opposite of -4.8x is 4.8x.

$$-4.3x+6-6+4.8x=2$$

Subtract 6 from 6 to get 0.

$$-4.3x+4.8x=2$$

Combine -4.3x and 4.8x to get 0.5x.

$$0.5x=2$$

Divide both sides by 0.5.

$$x=\frac{2}{0.5}$$

Expand \frac{2}{0.5} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.

$$x=\frac{20}{5}$$

Divide 20 by 5 to get 4.

$$x=4$$
