Question

3x-2(6x-3)=42 *what is the value of x?​

Answer 1

Answer: -4

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-2(6x-3)=42

3x - 12x + 6 = 42

-9x + 6 = 42

-9x = 42 - 6

x = -36/9 = -4

Answer 2

Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-2(6x-3)=42

Distribute

3x -12x+6 = 42

Combine like terms

-9x+6 = 42

Subtract 6 from each side

-9x+6-6 = 42-6

-9x = 36

Divide each side by -9

-9x/-9 = 36/-9

x = -4
