    x=-3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

    3 (x-6) + 6=5x-6

    (3) (x) + (3) (-6) + 6=5x+-6 (Distribute)

    3x+-18+6=5x+-6

    (3x) + (-18+6) = 5x-6 (Combine Like Terms)

    3x+-12=5x-6

    3x-12=5x-6

    Step 2: Subtract 5x from both sides.

    3x-12-5x=5x-6-5x

    -2x-12=-6

    Step 3: Add 12 to both sides.

    -2x-12+12=-6+12

    -2x=6

    Step 4: Divide both sides by - 2.

    -2x

    -2

    =

    6

    -2

    x=-3
