Question

3(2x+3)-4(3x-6)=16 show and explain.

Answer 1

x = 17/6

Explanation:

First of all remove parenthesis by using distribution

6x + 9 - 12x + 24 = 16

Then collect all like terms

-6x + 33 = 16

After that move the constant to the right

- 6x = 16 - 33

Calculate 16 - 33

-6x = -17

Divide both sides

x = 17/6

Hope this helps!
