Question

What is the x in 120(2x-2)=240

Answer 1

X=2

Explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

120(2x−2)=240

(120)(2x)+(120)(−2)=240(Distribute)

240x+−240=240

240x−240=240

Step 2: Add 240 to both sides.

240x−240+240=240+240

240x=480

Step 3: Divide both sides by 240.

240x /240 = 480 /240

x=2
