Question

What is 8q+12=4(3+3q)

Answer 1

Q = 0

Explanation:

1. Expand.

8q + 12 = 12 + 12q

2.cancle 12 on both sides.

8q = 12q

3. Move all terms to one side.

8q - 12q = 0

4. simplify 8q - 12q to -4q.

-4q = 0

5. Divide both sides by -4.

q=0

therefor, the answer is q=0

Answer 2

q = 0

Explanation:

8q + 12 = 4( 3 + 3q )

Distributive property

8q + 12 = 4 ( 3 + 3q )

8q + 12 = 12 + 12q

Inverse operations

8q + 12 = 12 + 12q

-8q -8q

12 = 12 + 4q

-12 -12

0 = q

q = 0
