What is this equation? 6= -3(x+2)

Question 1

What is this equation?
6= -3(x+2)

Question 2

$\text {Hello! Let's Solve this Problem!}$

$\text {\underline {The First Step is to Flip The Equation}}$

$\text {Before: 6= -3(x+2)}\\\text {After: -3(x+2)=6}$

$\text {\underline {The Next Step is to Simplify the Equation}}$

$\text {-3*x=-3x}\\\text {-3*2=-6}$

$\text {Your New Problem Should Be: -3x-6=6}$

$\text {\underline {The Next Step is to Add 6 to Both Sides}}$

$\text {-3x-6+6 (-6+6 crosses out because it'll equal 0}\\\text {6+6=12}$

$\text {To get x by itself we must divide now}$

$\text {\underline {The Final Step is to Divide Both Sides by -3}}$

$\text {-3x/-3=0 (this crosses out each other. Leaving x by itself)}\\\text {12/-3=}$

$\text {Your Answer Would Be:}$

$\huge\boxed {x=-4}$

$\text {Best of Luck!}$

Question 3

Answer:

6=−3−6

Explanation:

6=-3(x+2)

6=-3x-6
