Negative one times the sum of twice a number and three is equal to two times the difference of negative 4 times the number and three

Question

How to write it and solve the problem

Answer 1

x = Number and Equation is    - 1(2x+3) = 2 (- 4x - 3)
- 2x - 3 = - 8x - 6  add 8x to both sides to get 6x - 3 = - 6  add 3 to both sides to get 6x = -3, divide by 6,
x = - 1/2                  when you replace x with - 1/2, both sides of the equation = - 2
