2+4x-12=4(x-3)

Answer 1

Let's solve the equation step by step:

2 + 4x - 12 = 4(x - 3)

First, distribute the 4 on the right side:
2 + 4x - 12 = 4x - 12

Now, combine like terms on the left side:
4x - 10 = 4x - 12

Subtract 4x from both sides to isolate the constant term:
-10 = -12

Since this equation is not true (false statement), there is no solution to this equation.
