3x-6=x-\left(2x-1\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by x-2.
3x-6=x-2x-\left(-1\right)
To find the opposite of 2x-1, find the opposite of each term.
3x-6=x-2x+1
The opposite of -1 is 1.
3x-6=-x+1
Combine x and -2x to get -x.
3x-6+x=1
Add x to both sides.
4x-6=1
Combine 3x and x to get 4x.
4x=1+6
Add 6 to both sides.
4x=7
Add 1 and 6 to get 7.
x=\frac{7}{4}
Divide both sides by 4.
