Question

What is the sum for:
(2x−6)+4(x−3)

Answer 1

x=-2

Step-by-step explanation: First we can multiply 4 times anything in the parenthesis to get rid of it.

(2x-6)+4(x-3)

(2x-6)+4x-12

Then we combine like terms.

(2x-6)+4x-12

6x-6-12

6x-18

Finally we divide both sides by 6.

6x-18

6x/6-18/6

x=-2

Answer 2

6x - 18

Explanation:

2x - 6 + 4x - 12 = 6x - 18

First, distribute the 4 and then combine the like terms to get 6x - 18.
