2x+5=2-3+4\left(1-2x\right)
Add 3 and 2 to get 5.
2x+5=-1+4\left(1-2x\right)
Subtract 3 from 2 to get -1.
2x+5=-1+4-8x
Use the distributive property to multiply 4 by 1-2x.
2x+5=3-8x
Add -1 and 4 to get 3.
2x+5+8x=3
Add 8x to both sides.
10x+5=3
Combine 2x and 8x to get 10x.
10x=3-5
Subtract 5 from both sides.
10x=-2
Subtract 5 from 3 to get -2.
x=\frac{-2}{10}
Divide both sides by 10.
x=-\frac{1}{5}
Reduce the fraction \frac{-2}{10} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.
