Question

-3(x-2)=12 solve the equation

Answer 1

`- 3(x - 2) = 12`
Now, distribute.

`- 3x + 6 = 12`
Now subtract 6 from both sides.

`- 3x = 6`
Now, divide by -3.

`x = - 2`

Answer 2

Explanation:

-3(x-2)=12

-3x+6=12

subtract 6 from both sides

-3x+6-6=12-6

-3x=6

divide by -3

-3x/3=6/-3

x=-2
