2x-2\sqrt{3}-1=\left(-\sqrt{6}\right)\left(1-x\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by x-\sqrt{3}.
2x-2\sqrt{3}-1=-\sqrt{6}-\left(-\sqrt{6}\right)x
Use the distributive property to multiply -\sqrt{6} by 1-x.
2x-2\sqrt{3}-1=-\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{6}x
Multiply -1 and -1 to get 1.
2x-2\sqrt{3}-1-\sqrt{6}x=-\sqrt{6}
Subtract \sqrt{6}x from both sides.
2x-1-\sqrt{6}x=-\sqrt{6}+2\sqrt{3}
Add 2\sqrt{3} to both sides.
2x-\sqrt{6}x=-\sqrt{6}+2\sqrt{3}+1
Add 1 to both sides.
\left(2-\sqrt{6}\right)x=-\sqrt{6}+2\sqrt{3}+1
Combine all terms containing x.
\left(2-\sqrt{6}\right)x=2\sqrt{3}+1-\sqrt{6}
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(2-\sqrt{6}\right)x}{2-\sqrt{6}}=\frac{2\sqrt{3}+1-\sqrt{6}}{2-\sqrt{6}}
Divide both sides by 2-\sqrt{6}.
x=\frac{2\sqrt{3}+1-\sqrt{6}}{2-\sqrt{6}}
Dividing by 2-\sqrt{6} undoes the multiplication by 2-\sqrt{6}.
x=\frac{\sqrt{6}}{2}+2-2\sqrt{3}-3\sqrt{2}
Divide -\sqrt{6}+2\sqrt{3}+1 by 2-\sqrt{6}.
