Answer:

x = w + 2

General Formulas and Concepts:

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

Distributive Property

Explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

6(2x - 4) = 12w

Step 2: Solve for x

  1. Distribute 6: 12x - 24 = 12w
  2. Subtract 24 on both sides: 12x = 12w + 24
  3. Divide 12 on both sides: x = (12w + 24)/12
  4. Factor GCF: x = 12(w + 2)/12
  5. Simplify: x = w + 2
