Q:

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

Accepted Solution

A:
To solve the equation 4(x - 3) = 2(x - 2), we can use the distributive property to simplify the expressions on both sides of the equation: 4(x - 3) = 2(x - 2) 4x - 12 = 2x - 4 Next, we can simplify the equation by moving all the x terms to one side of the equation and all the constant terms to the other side of the equation: 4x - 12 = 2x - 4 4x - 2x = -4 + 12 2x = 8 Finally, we can solve for x by dividing both sides of the equation by 2: 2x = 8 x = 4 Therefore, the solution to the equation 4(x - 3) = 2(x - 2) is x = 4.
