12-18x+8=2-9x
Use the distributive property to multiply 6 by 2-3x.
20-18x=2-9x
Add 12 and 8 to get 20.
20-18x+9x=2
Add 9x to both sides.
20-9x=2
Combine -18x and 9x to get -9x.
-9x=2-20
Subtract 20 from both sides.
-9x=-18
Subtract 20 from 2 to get -18.
x=\frac{-18}{-9}
Divide both sides by -9.
x=2
Divide -18 by -9 to get 2.
