    (3 - (3x-1)) = 2 (x+3) - 1

    distribute

    3-3x+1=2x+6-1

    combine like terms

    -3x+4=2x+5

    add 3x both sides

    4=5x+5

    minus 5 both sides

    -1=5x

    divide 5 both sides

    -1/5=x

    3 - (3x - 1) = 2 (x + 3) - 1

    3 - 3x + 1 = 2x + 6 - 1

    -3x + 4 = 2x + 5

    -3x - 2x = 5 - 4

    -5x = 1

    x = - 1/5
