    x = - 2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    6 (3x + 4) = 4x - 4

    Distribute:

    18x + 24 = 4x - 4

    18x - 4x + 24 = - 4

    14x + 24 = - 4

    14x = - 4 - 24

    14x = - 28

    x = - 28 / 14

    x = - 2

    x = - 2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given

    6 (3x + 4) = 4x - 4 ← distribute parenthesis on left side

    18x + 24 = 4x - 4 (subtract 4x from both sides)

    14x + 24 = - 4 (subtract 24 from both sides)

    14x = - 28 (divide both sides by 14)

    x = - 2
