Answer:

[tex]x=1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP 1: Simplify 3(x+1).

[tex]3x+3=-2(x-1)+6[/tex]

STEP 2: Simplify −2(x−1)+6.

[tex]3x+3=-2x+8[/tex]

STEP 3: Move all terms containing x to the left side of the equation.

[tex]5x+3=8[/tex]

STEP 4: Move all terms not containing x to the right side of the equation.

[tex]5x=5[/tex]

STEP 5: Divide each term by 5 and simplify.

[tex]x=1[/tex]
