Question

Solve –2(2x – 3) = –6

Answer 1

remove parentheses using distributive law

Answer 2

-4x=-12
x=3

Answer 3

-2(2x-3)=-6
-4x+6=-6
6+6=4x
12=4x
3=x

Answer 4

\[-2\times 2x+(-2)\times (-3)=-6\]
\[-4x+6=-6\] subtract 6 from both sides
\[-4x+6-6=-6-6\]
\[-4x=-12\] divide both sides by -4
\[\frac{-4x}{-4}=\frac{-12}{-4}\]
\[x=3\]
