Answer:
x=−12
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
5x+6=2(2x−3)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
5x+6=2(2x−3)
5x+6=(2)(2x)+(2)(−3)(Distribute)
5x+6=4x+−6
5x+6=4x−6
Step 2: Subtract 4x from both sides.
5x+6−4x=4x−6−4x
x+6=−6
Step 3: Subtract 6 from both sides.
x+6−6=−6−6
