HELP! what equation is equivalent to 3(1-x)=2x-(6x+3) A-3-x=-4x-3 B-3-x=-4x+3 C-3-3x=-4x-3 D-3-3x=-4x+3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's easy distribute the equation and see which one it equals to.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't know how to distribute the 2x-, so it is not easy for me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I believe the answer is A OR B I did the math in my head may have made a error

OpenStudy (phi):

in 2x - (6x+3) think of this as 2x + -1*(6x+3) now distribute the -1. that means multiply -1 times each term inside the parens

OpenStudy (phi):

can you multiply -1 times 6x and -1 times 3 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The answer is A, I think.
