2

3

All real numbers

No solution

Answer 1

Distribute the numbers:

-2(x+3) = -2(x+1) - 4

-2x -6 = -2x - 2 - 4

Answer 2

Then you will combine the like terms which is -2 -4 = -6

-2x - 6 = -2x - 6

Answer 3

Then you will combine like terms again so

-2x - 6 = -2x - 6 Add 6 to both sides = 0 and add -2x to both sides which also = 0

Answer 4

so what would the answer be??

Answer 5

No real solution :)
