I see that you got two votes for -2 and two votes for 2. To see who's right, plug in the answer. It will be easier to work with the 2, so let's plug that in:
-2(2) + 32 = -6(2-4)
-4 + 32 = 12
28 = 12
Nope, 2 can't be the answer. Let's try -2.
-2(-2) + 32 = -6(-2-4)
4+32 = -6(-6)
36 = 36
YES! The correct answer is -2!

11+(a million/x-2)=33 beginning up equation 11+(x-2)=33 in case you have been to divide via a million the respond continues to be the comparable 11+x-2=33 via fact 2 does not flow into x we distribute the plus sign which drops the parenthesis 9+x=33 it incredibly is easy basically start to simplify 11-2=9 x=24 you subtract 9 from the two sides after which you have x=24 now thats your answer

-2x + 32= -6(x-4)
-2x + 32 = -6x + 24
+6x +6x
4x + 32= 24
-32 -32
4x = - 8
x= -2

-2x=32=-6(x-4)
(-2x+6x)+32=24
4x+32=24
4x=(24-32)
4x= -8
x= -2
