Question

3 (2x - 4) = 3 (2x + 4)

Answer 1

False Expresion, Wrong , Error

Explanation:

if solving for x

3 (2x - 4) = 3 (2x + 4) insert the 3 into the parenthesis [remember to imput for each element])

6x - 12 = 6x +12 False expression

if we decide to go further we would get

0x = 24

Answer 2

`3 (2x - 4) = 3 (2x + 4)`

Distribute:

`(3)(2x)+(3)(-4)=(3)(2x)+(3)(4)`

`6x-12=6x+12`

Subtract 6x from both sides:

`6x-12-6x=6x+12-6x`

`-12=12`

Add 12 to both sides:

`-12+12=12+12`

`0=24` (false)

`\fbox{No solution}`
