Question

Solve the following linear equation: 6(x-3)=18​

Answer 1

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

6(x-3)=18

Then divide both sides by 6

x-3=3

Add 3 to both sides

x=6

Answer 2

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

• 6(x-3) = 18​

use distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac

• 6x - 18 = 18

change sides

• 6x = 18 + 18

add integers

• 6x = 36

divide both sides by 6

• x = 6
