-1 is the answer. (Distribute 3 through the parenthesis and then distribute-2 through the parenthesis) 3x+3 = +2x+2-4 (Move the variable to the left side and change its sign and then move the constant to the right side and change its sign) 3x+2x = -2-3 (Collect the like and then calculate the sum or difference) 5x = -1 (Divide both sides of the equation by 5) x = -1
