Question

Solve for x: –4(3x – 2) = 6x + 2

Answer 1

are you really having trouble with that because its kinda easy

Answer 2

yes

Answer 3

(-4)(3x) - (-4)(2) = 6x + 2
-12x - (-8) = 6x + 2
-12x + 8 = 6x + 2
bring all the x terms to one side of the equation
8 - 2 = 6x + 12x
6 = 18x
6/18 =x
1/3 =x

Answer 4

–4(3x – 2) = 6x + 2
distribute -4
-12x + 8 = 6x + 2
transpose -12x to the other side as well as 2
8-2 = 6x +12x
do the mathematics :)
18x=6
divide both sides by 18 :)
x=6/18 or 1/3

Answer 5

just give me the damn answer
