3(4-2x)+6=-2x+4 equation
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
3*(4-2*x)+6 = -2*x+4
Expand brackets in the left part
3*4-3*2*x+6 = -2*x+4
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
18 - 6*x = -2*x+4
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 6 x = - 2 x - 14$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$\left(-4\right) x = -14$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -4
x = -14 / (-4)
We get the answer: x = 7/2
