30x-5\left(2-x\right)=6\left(x+2\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 30, the least common multiple of 6,5.
30x-10+5x=6\left(x+2\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply -5 by 2-x.
35x-10=6\left(x+2\right)
Combine 30x and 5x to get 35x.
35x-10=6x+12
Use the distributive property to multiply 6 by x+2.
35x-10-6x=12
Subtract 6x from both sides.
29x-10=12
Combine 35x and -6x to get 29x.
29x=12+10
Add 10 to both sides.
29x=22
Add 12 and 10 to get 22.
x=\frac{22}{29}
Divide both sides by 29.
