Question

Solve each equation. Show all of your work and check your answer 4x=1/3(6x-30)-2

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve:

4x = 1/3(6x - 30) - 2

4x = 2x - 10 - 2

2x = -10 - 2

2x = -12

x = -6

Check:

4(-6) = 1/3(6(-6) - 30) - 2

-24 = 1/3(-36 - 30) - 2

-24 = 1/3(-66) - 2

-24 = -22 - 2

-24 = -24
