Answer:

-2x²+12x

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive Property:

↓

A(B+C)=AB+AC

A= -2x

B= x

C=6

-2xx-(-2x)*6

-2xx+2*6x

Simplify, to find the answer.

-2xx+2*6x

2*6=12

-2x²+12x is the correct answer.

Answer:

-2x² + 12x

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify, distribute the term outside the parenthesis (-2x) to all terms within the parenthesis. Remember to note the sign too:

-2x(x) = -2x²

-2x(-6) = +12x

-2x² + 12x is your answer.

Answer:

$\large\boxed{x=4\pm2\sqrt6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$x^2-6x+12=2x+20\qquad\text{subtract}\ 2x\ \text{and}\ 12\ \text{from both sides}\\\\x^2-8x=8\\\\x^2-2(x)(4)=8\qquad\text{add}\ 4^2=16\ \text{to both sides}\\\\x^2-2(x)(4)+4^2=8+4^2\qquad\text{use}\ (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2\\\\(x-4)^2=24\iff x-4=\pm\sqrt{24}\\\\x-4=\pm\sqrt{4\cdot6}\\\\x-4=\pm\sqrt4\cdot\sqrt6\\\\x-4=\pm2\sqrt6\qquad\text{add 4 to both sides}\\\\x=4\pm2\sqrt6$
