What is the value of x in the equation 4x – 2(x + 3) = 8? Show ALL steps in the space below:

Respuesta :

Answer:x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - 2(x + 3) = 8

4x - 2x - 6 = 8

2x - 6 = 8

2x = 14

x = 7

First step is to distribute -2 to x and 3, which equals -2x and -6

Second step is to subtract 4x - 2x, which equals 2x

Third step is to add -6 to 8, which equals 14

last step is to divide, 2x / 14, which equals 7

I hope this is correct
