    To correctly solve x from the given equation,

    3x - 3 = 6x + 1

    We first subtract 3x from both sides of the equation and this will give us,

    -3 = (6x - 3x) + 1

    Simplifying,

    -3 = 3x + 1

    Then, subtract 1 again from both sides of the equation to give,

    -4 = 3x

    Lastly, divide both sides by 3 giving us a final answer for x which is x = - 4/3.
