-2(x - 6) = -4

Parth (parthkohli):

Try to divide both sides by -2 rather than distributing and making it complicated.

Parth (parthkohli):

\(x - 6 = -4 \div -2\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2x+12=-4 -2x=-4-12 -2x=-16 divide by -2 x=8

Parth (parthkohli):

\(\Rightarrow x - 6 = 2 \) What do you subtract 6 from and you get 2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8

Parth (parthkohli):

Yes! :)
