What value of x makes the equation true <br> 2 (6x-1) = -38

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

<h3> $\boxed{\bold{\boxed{ \sf{x = - 3}}}}$ </h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf{2(6x - 1) = - 38}$

Distribute 2 through the parentheses

⇒ $\sf{12x - 2 = - 38}$

Move constant to right hand side and change it's sign

⇒ $\sf{12x = - 38 + 2}$

Calculate

⇒ $\sf{12x = - 36}$

Divide both sides of the equation by 12

⇒ $\sf{ \frac{12x}{12} = \frac{ - 36}{12} }$

Calculate

⇒ $\sf{x = - 3}$

Hope I helped!

Best regards!!

I need help please and thank you.

kogti [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2x}{5} + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{7x - 2}{15}$

$\frac{6x + 5}{15} = \frac{7x - 2}{15}$

$6x + 5 = 7x - 2$

$6x - 7x = - 2 - 5$

$- x = - 7$

$x = 7$

option (4)
