Answer:

-8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

2 - x = - 6 - 4x      <-- Add 4x to the left side

2 + 3x = - 6          <-- Subtract 2 from the left side

3x = -8             <-- Divide 3 on both sides

x = -8/3

Answer:

x = -8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Consolidate x terms on the right side:

2-x= -6-4x becomes 2-x + x = -6-4x + x, which in turn becomes:

2 = -6 - 3x, or 3x = -8.  Then, dividing both sides by 3, we get x = -8/3
