    Answer: x=13/3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    3x+2 (4x-6) = 8x+1

    open brackets

    3x+8x-12=8x+1

    Collect like terms

    3x+8x-8x=12+1

    3x=13

    divide both side by 3

    3x/3=13/3

    x=13/3

    4 1/3 or 4.33 or 13/3 depending on the form your teacher requires

    Step-by-step explanation:

    3x+2 (4x-6) = 8x+1

    3x + 8x-12 = 8x+1

    11x-12=8x+1

    11x-12+12 = 8x+1+12

    11x=8x+13

    11x-8x = 8x-8x+13

    3x=13

    3x/3 = 13/3

    x=4.333 or 4 1/3
