-4(3x+2/6)
Solving for x

Sagot :

Answer:

x = [tex]-\frac{1}{9}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

FOIL what is in the parentheses by multiplying terms by -4.

[tex]-4(3x+\frac{2}{6})[/tex]

-4(3x) = -12x and -4(2/6) = -4/3

now add these products: [tex]-12x-\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

That is the simplified product ^, but assuming you're supposed to set the equation to equal 0...

Set equation to 0 and add the fraction to both sides. Rewrite as [tex]-12x=\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

Divide both sides by -12 to get variable, x, alone. Multiplying 4/3 by -1/12 is the same as dividing 4/3 by -12. The negative sign from the -12 make the quotient negative.

x = [tex]-\frac{1}{9}[/tex]

Answer:

x = -1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

FOIL what is in the parentheses by multiplying terms by -4.

-4(3x) = -12x and -4(2/6) = -4/3

now add these products:

That is the simplified product ^, but assuming you're supposed to set the equation to equal 0...

Set equation to 0 and add the fraction to both sides. Rewrite as

Divide both sides by -12 to get variable, x, alone. Multiplying 4/3 by -1/12 is the same as dividing 4/3 by -12. The negative sign from the -12 make the quotient negative.

x= 1/9
