Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for x, we get:

16=2(3x-6)+x

16=2*3x+2(-6)+x (Distributive Property of Multiplication)

16=6x-12+x (Multiply distributed terms)

16=7x-12 (Combine like terms)

16+12=7x-12+12 (Add 12 to both sides of the equation to isolate x)

28=7x (Combine like terms / Simplify)

\frac{28}{7}=\frac{7x}{7} (Divide both sides of the equation by 7 to get rid of x's coefficient)

\bf x=4 (Simplify / Symmetric Property of Equality)

Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

16 = 2(3x - 6) + x \\ 16 = 6x - 12 + x \\  - 6x  - x =  - 12 - 16 \\  - 7x =  - 12 - 16 \\ 7x = 12 + 16 \\ 7x = 28 \\ x =  \frac{28}{7}  \\ x = 4
