Question

Solve for x: −2(4 − 2x) + 3x = 2x + 2(5 + x) − 6

Answer 1

Answer:

$\displaystyle 4 = x$

Step-by-step explanation:

−2(4 − 2x) + 3x = 2x + 2(5 + x) − 6

−8 + 4x + 3x = 2x + 10 + 2x − 6

−8 + 7x = 4 + 4x

- 4 - 7x - 4 - 7x

Answer 2

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

−2(4 − 2x) + 3x = 2x + 2(5 + x) − 6 (DISTRUBUTE)

-8+4x+3x=2x+10+2x-6 (SIMPLFY)

-8+7x=4x+4 (SUBTRACTE 4X FROM BOTH SIDES)

3x-8=4 (ADDD 8 TO BOTH SIDES)

3x=12 (DIVIDE MY 3 ON BOTH SIDES)

x=4
