First, you would add two to the negative 2. Since you're doing that, you must also add two to the other side, which in this case is the four. So..
3x-2=4
+2 +2

You will have 3x=6. Then, you divde 3 on both sides. You will be left with x=2.

To check, plug in for x.

3x-2=4
So x equals 2
3x2-2=4
3 times 2 is six and six minus two is 4

Consider this expression 5/6(1/2x+6)-3x<br> What is the value of the expression evaluated for x=12

just olya [345]

ANSWER

The correct answer is $-26$

EXPLANATION

The expression given to us is,

$\frac{5}{6}( \frac{1}{2}x+ 6)-3x$

We plug in $x=12$ . That means we substitute 12 wherever we see x to obtain,

$\frac{5}{6}( \frac{1}{2}\times 12+ 6)-3\times 12$

We simplify the parenthesis first to obtain,

$=\frac{5}{6}( 6+ 6)-36$

$=\frac{5}{6}( 12)-36$

$=5\times 2-36$

$=10-36$

$=-26$

Hence the expression evaluates to $=-26$
