X–2(x+1)+3(x+2)=x–4
(show work too please)

x = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

x-2(x+1)+3(x+2) = x-4 (equation)

x-2x+2+3x+6 = x-4 (simplify)

2x+8 = x-4 (combine like terms)

x+8 = -4 (subtract x from both sides)

x = -12 (subtract 8 from both sides)

step-by-step explanation:

6 + 24 = 30,   so 6/30 = .2  

if you do 1/5 it also equals .2, so that is the answer.
