You would multiply the negative two by x then the negative to by negative one then you would get 3-2x+2=2+4x then you would ad 2 x to 4x and get 6x the. Subtract 3-2 and you would get 1 the. You would subtract the 2 from the 1 and get -1 and you would get -1=6x so you would divide 6x and 1 and you would get x=-1/6 ( hope this helps)
