6-5x=-2x+30
Multiply both sides of the equation by 6, the least common multiple of 6,3.
6-5x+2x=30
Add 2x to both sides.
6-3x=30
Combine -5x and 2x to get -3x.
-3x=30-6
Subtract 6 from both sides.
-3x=24
Subtract 6 from 30 to get 24.
x=\frac{24}{-3}
Divide both sides by -3.
x=-8
Divide 24 by -3 to get -8.
