4(1-2) + 2(x + 3) = 6
mutiply the first bracket by 4
(4)(1)= 4
(4)(-2)= -8
mutiply the second bracket by 2
(2)(x)= 2x
(2)(3)= 6
4-8+2x+6= 6
4-8+6+2x= 6
-4+6+2x= 6
2+2x= 6
move 2 to the other side
sign changes from 2 to -2
2-2+2x= 6-2
2x=6-2
2x= 4
divide by 2 for both sides
2x/2= 4/2
Answer: x= 2
Answer:
2 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
4(1 - 2) + 2(x + 3) = 6
4(-1) + 2x + 6 = 6
-4 + 2x + 6 = 6
2 + 2x = 6 [Combine like-terms]
-2 - 2
