2\left(x^{2}-4x+4\right)-3\left(x-1\right)^{2}-\left(1-x\right)\left(x-3\right)=0
Use binomial theorem \left(a-b\right)^{2}=a^{2}-2ab+b^{2} to expand \left(x-2\right)^{2}.
2x^{2}-8x+8-3\left(x-1\right)^{2}-\left(1-x\right)\left(x-3\right)=0
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by x^{2}-4x+4.
2x^{2}-8x+8-3\left(x^{2}-2x+1\right)-\left(1-x\right)\left(x-3\right)=0
Use binomial theorem \left(a-b\right)^{2}=a^{2}-2ab+b^{2} to expand \left(x-1\right)^{2}.
2x^{2}-8x+8-3x^{2}+6x-3-\left(1-x\right)\left(x-3\right)=0
Use the distributive property to multiply -3 by x^{2}-2x+1.
-x^{2}-8x+8+6x-3-\left(1-x\right)\left(x-3\right)=0
Combine 2x^{2} and -3x^{2} to get -x^{2}.
-x^{2}-2x+8-3-\left(1-x\right)\left(x-3\right)=0
Combine -8x and 6x to get -2x.
-x^{2}-2x+5-\left(1-x\right)\left(x-3\right)=0
Subtract 3 from 8 to get 5.
-x^{2}-2x+5-\left(4x-3-x^{2}\right)=0
Use the distributive property to multiply 1-x by x-3 and combine like terms.
-x^{2}-2x+5-4x+3+x^{2}=0
To find the opposite of 4x-3-x^{2}, find the opposite of each term.
-x^{2}-6x+5+3+x^{2}=0
Combine -2x and -4x to get -6x.
-x^{2}-6x+8+x^{2}=0
Add 5 and 3 to get 8.
-6x+8=0
Combine -x^{2} and x^{2} to get 0.
-6x=-8
Subtract 8 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=\frac{-8}{-6}
Divide both sides by -6.
x=\frac{4}{3}
Reduce the fraction \frac{-8}{-6} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out -2.
