Question 1015734: Solve the equation. Enter your answer as an equation that shows the value of the variable (like s = 2/3, or 4 = w).
2(x - 1) = 4x + 6 Answer by addingup(3677) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 2(x - 1) = 4x + 6 Multiply on left to get rid of parenthesis:
2x - 2 = 4x + 6 Subtract 6 on both sides (-2-6=-8):
2x - 8 = 4x Subtract 2x on both sides:
- 8 = 2x Divide both sides by 2:
- 4 = x
or
x = -4
