Question

-3(x-2)=12 solve the equation

Answer 1

$- 3(x - 2) = 12$
Now, distribute.
$- 3x + 6 = 12$
Now subtract 6 from both sides.
$- 3x = 6$
Now, divide by -3.
$x = - 2$

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-3(x-2)=12

-3x+6=12

subtract 6 from both sides

-3x+6-6=12-6

-3x=6

divide by -3

-3x/3=6/-3

x=-2
