Subtract 6 from 4 to get -2.
4x-2=15x-24
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by 5x-8.
4x-2-15x=-24
Subtract 15x from both sides.
-11x-2=-24
Combine 4x and -15x to get -11x.
-11x=-24+2
Add 2 to both sides.
-11x=-22
Add -24 and 2 to get -22.
x=\frac{-22}{-11}
Divide both sides by -11.
x=2
Divide -22 by -11 to get 2.
