Answer:
x = 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
2(4x+2) = 4x - 12(x-1)
Expand brackets.
8x + 4 = 4x - 12x + 12
Subtract 4 on both sides.
8x = 4x - 12x + 12 - 4
Subtract 4x and add 12x on both sides.
8x - 4x + 12x = 12 - 4
Combine like terms.
16x = 8
Divide both sides by 16.
x = 8/16 = 1/2
Answer:
x = 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
2(4x+2) = 4x - 12(x-1)
Distribute
8x +4 = 4x - 12x +12
Combine like terms
8x + 4 = -8x +12
Add 8x to each side
8x+4+8x = -8x+12 +8x
16x+4 = 12
Subtract 4 from each side
16x +4-4 = 12-4
16x = 8
Divide by 16
16x/16 =8/16
x = 1/2
