2x-26-\left(2x-6\right)=-\left(x-3\right)
Multiply 2 and 13 to get 26.
2x-26-2x-\left(-6\right)=-\left(x-3\right)
To find the opposite of 2x-6, find the opposite of each term.
2x-26-2x+6=-\left(x-3\right)
The opposite of -6 is 6.
-26+6=-\left(x-3\right)
Combine 2x and -2x to get 0.
-20=-\left(x-3\right)
Add -26 and 6 to get -20.
-20=-x-\left(-3\right)
To find the opposite of x-3, find the opposite of each term.
-20=-x+3
The opposite of -3 is 3.
-x+3=-20
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-x=-20-3
Subtract 3 from both sides.
-x=-23
Subtract 3 from -20 to get -23.
x=23
Multiply both sides by -1.
