Solve 8(3x-2)-4(4*-3)=6

$$8(3x-2)-4(4 \times -3)=6$$

Solve for x

$$x = -\frac{13}{12} = -1\frac{1}{12} \approx -1.083333333$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Use the distributive property to multiply 8 by 3x-2.

$$24x-16-4\times 4\left(-3\right)=6$$

Multiply 4 and 4 to get 16.

$$24x-16-16\left(-3\right)=6$$

Multiply 16 and -3 to get -48.

$$24x-16-\left(-48\right)=6$$

The opposite of -48 is 48.

$$24x-16+48=6$$

Add -16 and 48 to get 32.

$$24x+32=6$$

Subtract 32 from both sides.

$$24x=6-32$$

Subtract 32 from 6 to get -26.

$$24x=-26$$

Divide both sides by 24.

$$x=\frac{-26}{24}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{-26}{24} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$x=-\frac{13}{12}$$
