Question

Use the Distributive Property to solve the equation. 4(x-6)+2=6x-6

Answer 1

Answer:

x=14

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 4x-24+2=6x-6      Break the parenthesis (distributive property)

2. 4x-22=6x-6         Combine like terms

3. 22=2x-6               Minus 4x to each side

4. 28=2x                  Add 6 to each side

5. 14=x                     Divide each side by 2
