Question

2(4x - 3) + 18 = 4(3 + 2x)

Answer 1

The given equation is expressed as

`\begin{gathered} 2(4x\text{ - 3) + 18 = 4(3 + 2x)} \\ We\text{ would multiply each terms inside the bracket by the term outside the bracket.} \\ It\text{ becomes} \\ 2*4x\text{ + (2}*-3)+18=(4*3)\text{ + (4}*2x) \\ 8x+-\text{ 6 + 18 = 12 + 8x} \\ 8x\text{ - 6 - 8x = 12 - 18} \\ 8x\text{ - 8x = 12 - 18 + 6} \\ 0\text{ = 0} \end{gathered}`
