Question

is the equation 3(2x-4)=-18 equivalent to 6 x-12=-18?

Answer 1

Well you can figure that out

Answer 2

First we need to simplify

Answer 3

So for the first equation it would become 6x - 12 = -18

Answer 4

aka 6x = -6 because you add the 12 to both sides to get rid of it

Answer 5

aka x = -6/6
