Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2(3x−5)=4x+2

(2)(3x)+(2)(−5)=4x+2(Distribute)

6x+−10=4x+2

6x−10=4x+2

Step 2: Subtract 4x from both sides.

6x−10−4x=4x+2−4x

2x−10=2

Step 3: Add 10 to both sides.

2x−10+10=2+10

2x=12

Step 4: Divide both sides by 2.

2x=12

x=6
