Answer:

[tex]x=-4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]2(x+6)=4~(Given)\\\\2x+12=4~(Distribute~2~to~x+6)\\\\2x+12-12=4-12~(Subtract~12~on~both~sides)\\\\2x=-8~(Simplify)\\\\\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{-8}{2}~(Divide~2~on~both~sides)\\\\x=-4~(Simplify)[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {x=-4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]2(x+6)=4[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2 :

  • [tex]\cfrac{2\left(x+6\right)}{2}=\cfrac{4}{2}[/tex]
  • [tex]x+6=2[/tex]

Subtract 6 from both sides:

  • [tex]x+6-6=2-6[/tex]
  • [tex]x=-4[/tex]
