2(x−3)=8(x−6) what is the answer take your time and get it correct

x=7

Step-by-step explanation: First to get rid of the parentheses we must multiply everything  times 2 in the parentheses. Then we must also do the same with the other parentheses multiply everything by 8.

2(x−3)=8(x−6)

2x-6=8x-48

Then we subtract 8x from both sides.

2x-6=8x-48

-6x-6=-48

Then add 6 to both sides

-6x-6=-48

-6x=-42

Finally divide both sides -6

-6x/-6=-42/-6

x=7

Hope this helps!

step-by-step explanation:

i'm pretty sure it would take 20 hours because it's half the men so you multiply the number of hours it takes by 2
