198=-4x-12x+6
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by -6x+3.
198=-16x+6
Combine -4x and -12x to get -16x.
-16x+6=198
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-16x=198-6
Subtract 6 from both sides.
-16x=192
Subtract 6 from 198 to get 192.
x=\frac{192}{-16}
Divide both sides by -16.
x=-12
Divide 192 by -16 to get -12.
