Answer:

x= 2.4

hope this help you out

Answer:

[tex]x=\frac{12}{5}[/tex]

[tex]x=2.4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]6x+2\left(2x-3\right)=18[/tex]

Expand 2(2x-3) by applying Distributive law:

[tex]2\times \:2x-2\times \:3[/tex]

Multiply:

[tex]2\times \:2x=4[/tex]

[tex]2\times \:3=6[/tex]

[tex]4x-6[/tex]

[tex]6x+4x-6=18[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]6x+4x=10x[/tex]

[tex]10x-6=18[/tex]

Add 2 to both sides:

[tex]10x-6+6=18+6[/tex]

[tex]10x=24[/tex]

Divide both sides by 10:

[tex]\frac{10x}{10}=\frac{24}{10}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{12}{5}[/tex]
