Question

What is the value of x

6x - 2 ( x + 4 ) = 12

Answer 1

X = 1

Explanation:

1.) 6x - 2 (x + 4) = 12

Distribute the 2 with (2 times X) and (2 times 4)

2.) 6x - 2x + 8 = 12

Do 6x - 2x = 4x

3.) 4x + 8 = 12

Subtract 8 on both sides

4.) 4x = 4

Divide 4 on both sides

5.) 4 divided by 4 equals 1

X = 1

Best of luck
