The solution

You have entered [src]
6*(x + 2) = 30*x - 12*(x - 3)
$$6 \left(x + 2\right) = 30 x - 12 \left(x - 3\right)$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
6*(x+2) = 30*x-12*(x-3)

Expand brackets in the left part
6*x+6*2 = 30*x-12*(x-3)

Expand brackets in the right part
6*x+6*2 = 30*x-12*x+12*3

Looking for similar summands in the right part:
12 + 6*x = 36 + 18*x

Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$6 x = 18 x + 24$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$\left(-12\right) x = 24$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -12
x = 24 / (-12)

We get the answer: x = -2
