Solve for x and explain the steps: 3x-6=4(2-3x)-8x

Mathematics
1 answer:

Answer: x = 14/23

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-6=4(2-3x)-8x

3x-6=8-12x-8x --> Expand 4(2-3x)

3x-6=8-20x --> Collect like terms

3x-6+6=8-20x+6 --> Add 6 to both sides, to remove it from the right side

3x=-20x+14

3x+20x=-20x+14+20x --> Add 20x to both sides, to remove it from the left side

23x=14

\frac{23x}{23}=\frac{14}{23} --> Divide both sides by 23

x = 14/23
