You can put this solution on YOUR website!
2(3x-8) = 2/3x + 16\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I will write 2/3x as 2x/3, which is the same thing.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Statement............................... Reason\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2(3x-8)= (2x/3) + 16.....................Given\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "6x - 16 = (2x/3) + 16....................Distributive Property\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "18x - 48 = 2x + 96.......................Multiplying Both Sides by 3\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "18x = 2x + 96............................Addition Property of Equality\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "16x = 96................................Subtraction Porperty of Equality\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x = 6...................................Division Property of Equality\r
