Solve for x.
6 – 3(2x – 4) = 2(1 + x)
a. -2
b. 0
c. -1
d. 2

6 - 3(2x - 4) = 2(1 + x)   Use the Distributive Property (Multiply the number on the                                outside of the parentheses by all of the numbers in                                            parentheses to get rid of the parentheses.)
6 - 6x + 12 = 2 + 2x     Isolate the variable. Start by subtracting 2 from both                                           sides.
6 - 6x + 12 - 2 = 2x     Combine like terms. (6, 12, and -2)
16 - 6x = 2x                Add 6x to both sides to get all the x's on one side of the                                    equation.
16 = 8x                       Divide both sides by 8.
2 = x

X equals D. 2 .

Hi Brainiac

6 - 3(2x - 4) = 2(1 + x)
Use the distributive property
6+(-3)(2x)+(-3)(-4) = (2)(1)+(2)(x)
6 - 6x + 12 = 2 + 2x
Now we need to combine like terms
-6x +(6+12) = 2x +2
-6x + 18 = 2x + 2
-6x -2x = 2 - 18
-8x = -16
x = -16/-8
x= 2

I hope that's help... If you have any further questions please let me know. Good night :)
