6x-6+2\left(x-3\right)=12
Use the distributive property to multiply 6 by x-1.
6x-6+2x-6=12
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by x-3.
8x-6-6=12
Combine 6x and 2x to get 8x.
8x-12=12
Subtract 6 from -6 to get -12.
8x=12+12
Add 12 to both sides.
8x=24
Add 12 and 12 to get 24.
x=\frac{24}{8}
Divide both sides by 8.
x=3
Divide 24 by 8 to get 3.
