which of the following expressions is equal to 6-4(x+3)
I've seen the answer already in this forum but can someone guide me step by step please im very bad at math, thank you
Let's first expand $4(x+3):$ we have $4 \cdot x + 4 \cdot 3 = 4x + 12.$
Now, we have to subtract: $6-(4x+12) = 6-4x-12 = (6-12) - 4x = \boxed{-6 - 4x}$
The best way to learn is by experience. If you make mistakes, it's OK. Given that, can you take a shot at this: $4+3(x+2)$?
