Answer:
x=0
Explanation:
Question --> 2(2x-1)=-2(1+3x)
1) Distribute 2 to 2x and -1:
4x-2=-2(1+3x)
2) Distribute -2 to 1 and 3x:
4x-2=-2-6x
3) Add 2 to both sides:
4x=-6x
4) Add 6x to both sides:
10x=0
5) Divide both sides by 10:
x=0
Footnotes:
1) The Distributive property says a(b+c)=ab+ac
2) There is always an implied (0) on the right side of an equation if nothing is present
