Solve -4*(x-3)+3*(1-2x)=20

$$- 4 \cdot ( x - 3 ) + 3 \cdot ( 1 - 2 x ) = 20$$

Solve for x

$$x=-\frac{1}{2}=-0.5$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Use the distributive property to multiply -4 by x-3.

$$-4x+12+3\left(1-2x\right)=20$$

Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by 1-2x.

$$-4x+12+3-6x=20$$

Add 12 and 3 to get 15.

$$-4x+15-6x=20$$

Combine -4x and -6x to get -10x.

$$-10x+15=20$$

Subtract 15 from both sides.

$$-10x=20-15$$

Subtract 15 from 20 to get 5.

$$-10x=5$$

Divide both sides by -10.

$$x=\frac{5}{-10}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{5}{-10} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 5.

$$x=-\frac{1}{2}$$
