3-\left(-x\right)-2=3-\left(x-6\right)
To find the opposite of -x+2, find the opposite of each term.
1-\left(-x\right)=3-\left(x-6\right)
Subtract 2 from 3 to get 1.
1-\left(-x\right)=3-x-\left(-6\right)
To find the opposite of x-6, find the opposite of each term.
1-\left(-x\right)=3-x+6
The opposite of -6 is 6.
1-\left(-x\right)=9-x
Add 3 and 6 to get 9.
1-\left(-x\right)+x=9
Add x to both sides.
-\left(-x\right)+x=9-1
Subtract 1 from both sides.
-\left(-x\right)+x=8
Subtract 1 from 9 to get 8.
x+x=8
Multiply -1 and -1 to get 1.
2x=8
Combine x and x to get 2x.
x=\frac{8}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
x=4
Divide 8 by 2 to get 4.
