Question:


Solve. 6(2 – x) = 4x


Answer:

6(2 – x) = 4x


Remove the parenthesis by as follows...


6*2 – 6*x = 4x

==> 12 - 6x = 4x


Add 6x on both sides of the expression...

==> 12 - 6x + 6x = 4x + 6x


==> 12 = 10x


Divide both sides by 10

==> 12%2F10+=+10x%2F10

==> 1.2 = x

So, x = 1.2


Hope you found the explanation useful.
