    x = 3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    -6x - 20 = - 2x + 4 (1 - 3x)

    Distributive property

    -6x - 20 = - 2x + 4 - 12x

    Combine like terms

    -6x - 20 = - 14x + 4

    Add 14x to both sides

    -6x - 20 + 14x = - 14x + 4 + 14x

    Simplifying

    8x - 20 = 4

    Add 20 to both sides

    8x = 24

    Divide both sides by 8

    x = 3
