Answer:

Expand 2(3-x)

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]3x=4+2(3-x)[/tex]

Next step :Expand

[tex]2(3-x) = 6-2x\\\\3x =4+6-2x[/tex]

Further solving : Collect like terms

[tex]3x +2x=4+6\\\\\\Simplify\\5x =10[/tex]

Divide both sides of the equation by 5

[tex]\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{10}{5} \\\\Simplify\\\\x =2[/tex]
