Question

If g(x) = 3(x - 2), find the value of x if g(x) = 6. (2 points)

Answer 1

4

Explanation:

g(x) = 3(x-2)

g(x) = 6

6 = 3(x-2). 3(x-2) = 3x-6

1. add six to both sides, so the equation would be 12 = 3x
2. divide both sides by 3, so the equation would be 4 = x

So the final answer is x = 4
