The solution

You have entered [src]
15 - 3*(x - 6) = 9 - 6*x
$$15 - 3 \left(x - 6\right) = 9 - 6 x$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
15-3*(x-6) = 9-6*x

Expand brackets in the left part
15-3*x+3*6 = 9-6*x

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
33 - 3*x = 9-6*x

Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 3 x = - 6 x - 24$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$3 x = -24$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 3
x = -24 / (3)

We get the answer: x = -8
