Question

Solve. One point for showing the steps to solve each equation and one point for the correct solution.
4(x - 6) = -2(x - 3)

Answer 1

Hint: Divide both sides by -2 to get

-2(x-6) = x - 3

Answer 2

how did you get this

Answer 3

I divided both sides by -2

Answer 4

-2/-2 = 1
4/-2 = -2

Answer 5

Now distribute -2 across x - 6 to get:

-2x + 12 = x - 3

Answer 6

Afterwards, add 2x to both sides and 3 to both sides to get:

15 = 3x
