Answer: [tex]x=\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Remove the parenthesis:
[tex]-(4x+1)=3(2x-1)[/tex]
[tex]-4x-1=(2x-1)[/tex]
Move the terms:
[tex]-4x-1=6x-3[/tex]
[tex]-4x-6x-1=-3[/tex]
Collect like terms:
[tex]-4x-6x=-3+1[/tex]
[tex]-10x=-3+1[/tex]
Divide both sides:
[tex]-10x=-2[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
