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