Answer
$$ x = -12 $$
Explanation
$$ \begin{aligned} 32 &= x+34+x+33-(x+23)&& \text{simplify right side} \\[1 em]32 &= 2x+67-(x+23)&& \\[1 em]32 &= 2x+67-x-23&& \\[1 em]32 &= x+44&& \text{ swap the left and right side of the equation } \\[1 em]x+44 &= 32&& \text{ move 44 to the right } \\[1 em]x &= 32-44&& \\[1 em]x &= -12&& \\[1 em]x &= -12&& \\[1 em] \end{aligned} $$
