Solve the equation 4(2x + 1) = 6x − 12.

x equals negative thirteen halves
x = −8
x = 8
x equals eleven halves

x = - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are given a linear single variable equation of x and we have to solve it.

Now, the equation is 4(2x + 1) = 6x - 12

⇒ 8x + 4 = 6x - 12 {By distributive property of multiplication}

⇒ 8x - 6x = - 12 - 4

{Separating the x terms to one side and the constant terms to the other side}

⇒ 2x = - 16

⇒ x = - 8 {Dividing both sides by 2} (Answer)

x = - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

i would have to say it is c.

graphically?   well, you graph them both, the solutions is where they both intersect each other, since there are two solutions, meaning they will meet twice, or namely the linear will run into the quadratic curve twice, and where they meet, those x,y coordinates are the solutions to the system.
