Answer:
x = −2
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
3(4x+6)=x−4
(3)(4x)+(3)(6)=x+−4(Distribute)
12x+18=x+−4
12x+18=x−4
Step 2: Subtract x from both sides.
12x+18−x=x−4−x
11x+18=−4
Step 3: Subtract 18 from both sides.
11x+18−18=−4−18
11x=−22
Step 4: Divide both sides by 11.
[tex]\frac{11x}{11}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-22}{11}[/tex]
x = −2
