Question

-4(6x+3)= -12(x+ 10)

Answer 1

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(6x+3)= -12(x+10)

Let's do the first part:

-4(6x+3)

**distribute**

-4 x 6x = -24x; -4 x 3 = -12 ->>> -24x - 12

Let's do the second part:

-12(x+10)

**distribute**

-12 x x = -12x; -12 x 10 = -120 ->>> -12x -120

-24x -12 = -12x - 120

**Move variable to the left-hand side and change its sign**

-24x +12x -12 = -120

-12x - 12 = -120

-12x = 108

x = 108/-12

x=9
