We need to solve the equation to find x

We will simplify the left side by multiply each bracket by the number before it
-3(x - 6) = -3(x) + -3(-6) = -3x + 18
4(x + 1) = 4(x) + 4(1) = 4x + 4
Now put them on the left side

Add the like terms on the left side

Now we will collect x on the right side and the numbers on the left side
Subtract x from both sides

Add 14 to both sides

Divide both sides by 6 to find x

The value of x is 6

Answer: 31 games</h3>
======================================================
Explanation:
- 32/2 = 16 games will happen in round 1. Afterward, 16 teams are left.
- 16/2 = 8 games will happen in round 2. Afterward, 8 teams are left.
- 8/2 = 4 games happen in round 3.
- 4/2 = 2 games in round 4.
- 2/2 = 1 game as the final championship.
Count the number of times you divide by two and we have five occurrences of this. So there five rounds overall.
To get the total number of games played, we add up the quotients
16+8+4+2+1 = 31
----------------
Or as a shortcut we can simply subtract off 1 since 1+2+4+...+2^n = 2^(n+1)-1
We can write that rule as

which is equivalent to
