1) distribute -1/2
7x - 4x -2 = 6
2) combine like terms
3x - 2 = 6
3) use the addition properties of equality
3x = 8
4) use the division properties of equality
x = 8/3

<span>We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand
<span>7x-1/2(8x+4)=6
</span></span><span>Simplifying:
<span>7x-0.5*(8x+4)=6
</span></span><span>Reorder the terms 
<span>7x+(-4x-2)=6
</span></span><span>Remove unnecessary parentheses
<span>+7x-4x-2=+6
</span></span><span>We move all terms containing x to the left and all other terms to the right.
<span>+7x-4x=+6+2
We simplify left and right side of the equation.
<span>+3x=+8
We divide both sides of the equation by 3 to get x.
<span>x=2.66666666667</span></span></span></span>
