12-2*(x+3)=26 equation
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
12-2*(x+3) = 26
Expand brackets in the left part
12-2*x-2*3 = 26
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
6 - 2*x = 26
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 2 x = 20$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -2
x = 20 / (-2)
We get the answer: x = -10
