Answer:

Thomas is not correct, x-2 is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Thomas made his mistake by multiplying the 1/2 by both (6x-2) and -(2x+1). Thomas should have multiplied the 1/2 by just the (6x-2).

Correct procedure:

1/2 (6x-2)-(2x+1)

(3x-1)-(2x+1)

3x-1-2x-1

x-2

He is not correct, his mistake was multiplying 1/2 to 2x and 1, when you should have multiplied the negative to them.
