Answer 2

Answer:

$x=-2.176 approx.$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Equation:

                  $-34(x+2)=6$

Opening the bracket

           $-34(x)+(-34)(2)=6$

              $-34x+(-68)=6\\\\-34x-68=6$

Taking the terms of 'x' to one side and constants to the other side.

                  $-34x=6+68$

                   $-34x=74\\\\x=-\frac{74}{34} \\\\x =-2.176approx.$
