Question

What is the solution to the equation -4(2x+3) =2x+6-(8x+2)?

Answer 1

Answer:

$x = - 8$

Second answer is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

$- 4(2x + 3) = 2x + 6 - (8x + 2) \\ - 8x - 12 = 2x + 6 - 8x - 2 \\ - 8x - 12 = - 6x + 4 \\ - 8x + 6x = 12 + 4 \\ - 2x = 16 \\ \frac{ - 2x}{ - 2} = \frac{16}{ - 2} \\ x = - 8$

Answer 2

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

solve:

-4(2x+3) =2x+6-(8x+2)

-8x-12 = 2x+6-8x-2

-8x-12 = -6x + 4

-2x = 16

x = -8

Hope this helps.

Good Luck
