6x-6-2\left(2-x\right)=8-\left(2-6x\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 6 by x-1.
6x-6-4+2x=8-\left(2-6x\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply -2 by 2-x.
6x-10+2x=8-\left(2-6x\right)
Subtract 4 from -6 to get -10.
8x-10=8-\left(2-6x\right)
Combine 6x and 2x to get 8x.
8x-10=8-2-\left(-6x\right)
To find the opposite of 2-6x, find the opposite of each term.
8x-10=8-2+6x
The opposite of -6x is 6x.
8x-10=6+6x
Subtract 2 from 8 to get 6.
8x-10-6x=6
Subtract 6x from both sides.
2x-10=6
Combine 8x and -6x to get 2x.
2x=6+10
Add 10 to both sides.
2x=16
Add 6 and 10 to get 16.
x=\frac{16}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
x=8
Divide 16 by 2 to get 8.
