Answer:

\huge\boxed{x=0}

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(4x+3)=12x-6\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-2)}\\\\4x+3=-6x+3\qquad\text{subtract 3 from both sides}\\\\4x=-6x\qquad\text{add}\ 6x\ \text{to both sides}\\\\10x=0\qquad\text{divide both sides by 10}\\\\\boxed{x=0}\\\\=================================

-2(4x+3)=12x-6\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\ a(b+c)=ab+ac\\\\(-2)(4x)+(-2)(3)=12x-6\\\\-8x-6=12x-6\qquad\text{add 6 to both sides}\\\\-8x=12x\qquad\text{subtract}\ 12x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\-20x=0\qquad\text{divide both sides by}\ (-20)\\\\\boxed{x=0}

rjkz [21]

Answer: x= \frac{1}{5} Makes It True

Explantion: step 1: simplify both sides of the equation. −5x−(−7−4x)=−2(3x−4) −5x+−1(−7−4x)=−2(3x−4)(distribute the negative sign) −5x+(−1)(−7)+−1(−4x)=−2(3x−4) −5x+7+4x=−2(3x−4) −5x+7+4x=(−2)(3x)+(−2)(−4)(distribute) −5x+7+4x=−6x+8 (−5x+4x)+(7)=−6x+8(combine like terms) −x+7=−6x+8 −x+7=−6x+8 step 2: add 6x to both sides. −x+7+6x=−6x+8+6x 5x+7=8 step 3: subtract 7 from both sides. 5x+7−7=8−7 5x=1
