Solve the following algebraic equation and justify each step using one of the algebraic properties: 2/3 (12x + 6) = 5 + 3 (x − 2)
(Please write it out.)

x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 (12x + 6) = 5 + 3 (x - 2)
8x + 4 = 5 + 3x - 6
Combine like terms
8x + 4 = -1 + 3x
-3x - 4 = -4 -3x
5x = -5
x = -1
How do you get 5x = -5?
