Which is the first step in solving
X-2 = 2?
1 answer:
Answer:
The first step is to find a number that when subtracted from 2 gives you 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
The algebraic part of this problem would be to add the -2 (adding 2 to both sides) to both sides, so
first x-2=2, then x-2(+2)=2(+2) which would give us,
x=4
*note: the parenthesis are just to show that we are adding the 2, to make it more understandable.

Steps to solve:
-3(x + 2) = 12
~Distributive Property
(-3 * x) + (-3 * 2) = 12
~Simplify
-3x - 6 = 12
~Add 6 to both sides
-3x - 6 + 6 = 12 + 6
~Simplify
-3x = 18
~Divide -3 to both sides
-3x/-3 = 18/-3
~Simplify
x = -6
