Answer 1

Answer:

B. 10

C. All real numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

6 (2x-4) = 8(x + 2)

Distribute the numbers outside of the factors:

12x - 24 = 8x + 16

Subtract both sides by '8x'

12x - 8x - 24 = 8x - 8x + 16

4x - 24 = 16

Add '24' to both sides:

4x = 40

Divide both sides by 4:

x = 10. Therefore, B. 10 is the correct answer.

3(4p - 2) = -6(1 - 2p)

Distribute the numbers similarly to the example before:

12p - 6 = -6 + 12p

Subtract '12p' from both sides:

12p - 12p -6 = -6 + 12p - 12p

0 -6 = -6

Add '6' to both sides:

0 - 6 + 6 = -6 + 6

0 = 0

Therefore, the solution consists of all real numbers.
