Question

4. 3(4 – 2x) = –2x (1 point) –1 1 2 3

Answer 1

Answer:

$x=3$

Step-by-step explanation:

we  are given

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

Since, we have to solve for x

so, we will isolate x on anyone side

step-1:

Distribute 3

$3\times 4-3\times 2x=-2x$

$12-6x=-2x$

step-2:

Add both sides by 6x

$12-6x+6x=-2x+6x$

$12=4x$

step-3:

Divide both sides by 4

$\frac{12}{4} =\frac{4x}{4}$

$3=x$

So, solution is

$x=3$
