-2x-2 = -4, -2x+1 = -2 -4x-2 = -8
1+3=4 4x-2 = -8 the 1st minus in the 2nd bracket is wrong.

-2x - 2(-2x +1) = 1 + 3(-x - 2)
-2x + 4x -2 = 1 -3x - 6
2x - 2 = -5 - 3x
5x = -3
x = -3/5

+2X -2 = -3X -5
+2X+3X = -5 +2
5X = -3
X= - 3/5

go to math.com for help. I've used the sight a few times and it is good. You'll be able to find similar problems and they will be broken down so it's easy to understand.
Good Luck

Usually I'm the 4th grade math whiz, but woah?! I can't solve that! (Where's your calculator to help? Or is it homework? And plus, if it is homework, why are you asking a buncha people you don't know!?â¥)
