Solve the equation.

6(x−2)= −18
x=

-1

explanation: you have to distribute the 6 to what’s in the parentheses first. when you do this you get 6x - 12 = -18. next, since 12 is negative, you will add it to both sides. when you do this, you get 6x = -6. lastly, you divide six on both sides. this gives you x = -1

Two because two of one thing is two.
