In this question, you're solving for x.
Solve for x:
2(x - 8) + 4x = 6(x - 2) - 4
Distribute the 2 to the variables inside the parenthesis.
2x - 16 + 4x = 6(x - 2) - 4
Distribute the 6 to the variables inside the parenthesis.
2x - 16 + 4x = 6x - 12 - 4
6x - 16 = 6x - 12 - 4
6x - 16 = 6x - 16
Subtract 6x from both sides
-16 = -16
Add 16 to both sides
0 = 0
Answer:
All real numbers and solutions
First, we start with the equation that the problem told us, which is:
R + 6 = 2 * (x + 6)
Then, we distribute the two:
R + 6 = 2x + 12
Now, we put R on its own side.
R = 2x +6
So, the answer must be C, 2x + 6
