Solve 6*(x+2)+20=6*(x-2)+22-x

$$6 \cdot ( x + 2 ) + 20 = 6 \cdot ( x - 2 ) + 22 - x$$

Solve for x

$$x=-22$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Use the distributive property to multiply 6 by x+2.

$$6x+12+20=6\left(x-2\right)+22-x$$

Add 12 and 20 to get 32.

$$6x+32=6\left(x-2\right)+22-x$$

Use the distributive property to multiply 6 by x-2.

$$6x+32=6x-12+22-x$$

Add -12 and 22 to get 10.

$$6x+32=6x+10-x$$

Combine 6x and -x to get 5x.

$$6x+32=5x+10$$

Subtract 5x from both sides.

$$6x+32-5x=10$$

Combine 6x and -5x to get x.

$$x+32=10$$

Subtract 32 from both sides.

$$x=10-32$$

Subtract 32 from 10 to get -22.

$$x=-22$$
