The graph of the equation is attached

How to solve the equation

The graph of the equation -6(x + 4) = -3x - 6 shows that the solution is x = 6

We solve algebraically, as follows

-6(x + 4) = -3x - 6

Removing the parenthesis

-6x - 24 = -3x - 6

collecting like terms

-6x + 3x = -6 + 24

3x = 18

x = 6

Solve $-6(x+4)=-3x-6$ by graphing.-example-1
