6(3x - 5) = 4(4x + 2) Given

(6)(3x) + (6)(-5) = (4)(4x) + (4)(2) Distributive property

18x - 30 = 16x + 8

18x - 16x - 30 = 16x - 16x + 8 Subtraction property of equality

2x - 30 = 8

2x - 30 + 30 = 8 + 30 Addition property of equality

2x = 38

2x : 2 = 38 : 2 Division property of equality

x = 19
