Answer:

Expand your bracket

collect like items

Divide both sides by the coefficient of x

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(2x-4)+3=6x+1

STEP 1: Expanding bracket

(-4x+8)+3=6x+1

-4x+8+3=6x+1

STEP 2: Collect like terms

-4x+8+3=6x+1

-4x-6x=+1-8-3

-10x = -10

STEP 3: Divide both sides by the coefficient of x, i.e -10

(-10x ÷ 10) = (-10 ÷-10)

x = 1

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

apply distributive property

−2(2x−4)+3=6x+1

-4x +8 + 3 = 6x + 1

combine like terms

-4x + 11 = 6x +1 add 4x on both sides

11 = 10x + 1 subtract 1 on both sides

10 = 10x divide by 10

x = 1
