Question

Solve for x: 2(3x-3)=-18

Answer 1

Answer: x=-2

Explanation:

Step 1. Multiply the 2×3x and 2×3 which would make the problem 6x-6=-18

Step 2. Add the -6 to the -18 and multiply that answer of -12 by 6 to get your final answer of x=-2

Answer 2

`\huge\boxed{\sf x = -2}`

Explanation:

Given equation:

2(3x - 3) = -18

• Distribute 2 to 3x and 3

6x - 6 = -18

• Add 6 to both sides

6x = -18 + 6

6x = -12

• Divide both sides by 6

x = -12/6

x = -2
