Solve for X:
3−4(x−2)=6x+4(3−x)
Let's solve the equation 3−4(x−2)=6x+4(3−x).
First, apply the distributive property on both sides:
- For the left side: 3−4(x−2) becomes 3−4x+8, which simplifies to 11−4x.
- For the right side: 6x+4(3−x) becomes 6x+12−4x, which simplifies to 2x+12.
Now the equation is:
11−4x=2x+12
Combine like terms to isolate x. First, move all terms containing x to one side and constant terms to the other side:
- Add 4x to both sides: 11=6x+12.
- Subtract 12 from both sides: 11−12=6x, which simplifies to −1=6x.
Finally, solve for x by dividing both sides by 6:
x=−61.
Therefore, the solution to the problem is x=−61, which corresponds to choice 4.
