First, do -2 times x. that is -2x.  Next, do -2 times +6. That should be -12. The last steps are in order, add 18 on both sides. it should be -18+18 and -12+18. now you have 24 on the left and -2x and +6. -6 on both sides. 6-6 and 24-6. now you have 18 and -2x. so get rid of the -2x by doing -2x/-2 and on the left side 18/-2. So the answer should be -9=x.

Answer:

x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

-18+24 = -2(x+6) Distribute and simplify

6 = -2x-12 Add 12 to both sides

18 = -2x Divide by -2 on both sides

-9 = x Here's your answer

Hope this helps! :D
