First distribute 3 to (x-4). that gives you 3x-12. Now your equation is x-2=3x-12. Now you subtract x from 3x. now you're equation is -2=2x-12. then add 12 to the left. You're final answer is 10.

X-2=3x-4. Solve for x by first subtracting x from the left side (you want to keep x positive if you can). You then have -2=2x-4. Subtract four to help get x by itself and you have -6=2x. Divide by 2 and your answer is -3=x.

During the regular season, a National Basketball Association team plays 82 games and a National Football League team plays 16 ga

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

NFL teams play 16 regular season games each year, NHL and NBA teams play 82, while MLB teams play 162-could invalidate direct comparisons of win percentages alone. As an example, the highest annual team winning percentage is roughly 87% in the NFL but only 61% in MLB and part (but not all) of that difference is undoubtedly tied to the shorter NFL regular season
