Answer:
x = 1
Explanation:
−2(x − 3) = 4
[tex][ \ Simplify \ both \ sides \ of \ the \ equation \ ][/tex]
−2(x − 3) = 4
(−2)(x) + (−2)(−3) = 4 [tex][ \ Distribute \ ][/tex]
−2x + 6 = 4
[tex][ \ Subtract \ 6 \ from \ both \ sides \ ][/tex]
−2x + 6 − 6 = 4 − 6
−2x = −2
[tex][ \ Divide \ both \ sides \ by \ -2 \ ][/tex]
-2x / -2 = -2 / -2
x = 1
