First, let's simplify both sides of the equation:
3(x-6) = 2(5-2x)
3x - 18 = 10 - 4x
Now, let's isolate x on one side of the equation:
Add 4x to both sides:
3x + 4x - 18 = 10 - 4x + 4x
7x - 18 = 10
Add 18 to both sides:
7x - 18 + 18 = 10 + 18
7x = 28
Divide by 7 on both sides:
7x / 7 = 28 / 7
x = 4
Therefore, x = 4. So, the correct answer is x=4.
3(x-6) = 2(5-2x)
3x - 18 = 10 - 4x
Now, let's isolate x on one side of the equation:
Add 4x to both sides:
3x + 4x - 18 = 10 - 4x + 4x
7x - 18 = 10
Add 18 to both sides:
7x - 18 + 18 = 10 + 18
7x = 28
Divide by 7 on both sides:
7x / 7 = 28 / 7
x = 4
Therefore, x = 4. So, the correct answer is x=4.
