3(4x-8)=3x-6(x-2) equation
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
3*(4*x-8) = 3*x-6*(x-2)
Expand brackets in the left part
3*4*x-3*8 = 3*x-6*(x-2)
Expand brackets in the right part
3*4*x-3*8 = 3*x-6*x+6*2
Looking for similar summands in the right part:
-24 + 12*x = 12 - 3*x
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$12 x = 36 - 3 x$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$15 x = 36$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 15
x = 36 / (15)
We get the answer: x = 12/5
