Help me (2x−6)+4(x−3) =

6−18

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

(2x + -6) + 4(x + -3) = 0

Reorder the terms:

(-6 + 2x) + 4(x + -3) = 0

Remove parenthesis around (-6 + 2x)

-6 + 2x + 4(x + -3) = 0

Reorder the terms:

-6 + 2x + 4(-3 + x) = 0

-6 + 2x + (-3 * 4 + x * 4) = 0

-6 + 2x + (-12 + 4x) = 0

Reorder the terms:

-6 + -12 + 2x + 4x = 0

Combine like terms: -6 + -12 = -18

-18 + 2x + 4x = 0

Combine like terms: 2x + 4x = 6x

-18 + 6x = 0

Solving

-18 + 6x = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '18' to each side of the equation.

-18 + 18 + 6x = 0 + 18

Combine like terms: -18 + 18 = 0

0 + 6x = 0 + 18

6x = 0 + 18

Combine like terms: 0 + 18 = 18

6x = 18

answer: there are x+184 pages in olivia's book.

step-by-step explanation:

let the total number of pages in the book which olive has already read be x.

then if olive has 184 pages left to read, then the total number of pages are in olive's book= pages she has read+pages she has left to read

therefore, the total number of pages in olivia's book=

hence, there are x+184 pages in olivia's book.

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

eventually after a few more steps, your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
