Question 2418: Please help with this problem:
3(6s + 12) - (10s -6)=0

Answer by usyim88hk(158)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
First multiply (6s+12) by 3
3(6s+12)-(10s-6) = 0
(18s+36)-(10s-6) = 0
Then subtract (10s-6) from (18s+36)
18s+36-10s-(-6) = 0
8s+36+6 = 0
8s+42 = 0
8s = -42
s = -5.25
