4(x - 6) = -2(x - 3)

4x -24 = -2x + 6 <------ here we go :D

Answer 20

simplify that

Answer 21

ya the answer should
not be 9

Answer 22

unless i copied the problem wrong

Answer 23

2x-18 2x/2 and 18/2 is 9

Answer 24

4(x - 6) = -2(x - 3)

4x -24 = -2x + 6

4x - 24 + (24) = - 2x + 6 + ( 24 ) additive inverse of 24
24 is canceled on the rt side , added to right (simplified)
4x = -2x + 30

4x + (-2x) = -2x + 30 + (2x ) additive inverse of 2x
-2x is cancelled on lt side, added to lt (simplified)
6x = 30

do you understand why it is not
9
