Question

Solve for x. 2(2-x) + 12x =44

Answer 1

Answer:

2(2-x)+12x=44

4-2x+12x=44

-4             -4

-2x +12x = 40

10x=40

/10   /10

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

first you multiply the (2-x) by 2, you then subtract the 4 from both sides of the equation, you end up with -2x +12x = 40. Then subtract the 2x from the 12x and you end up with 10x. so now 10x=40. You then divide both sides by 10 and end up with x=10

sorry im not to good at explaining haha
