Question

What is the answer tie this problem (show ALL work please and thankyou) 1/3(18+12q)=6(2q-7)

Answer 1

$\frac{1}{3}$(18 + 12q) = 6(2q - 7)   Use the Distributive Property on both sides
  6 + 4q = 12q - 42   Subtract 12q from both sides
   6 - 8q = -42          Subtract 6 from both sides
       -8q = -48           Divide both sides by -8
          q = 6
