6(X-2)-4X=16
before you can solve for x you first have to bring the x terms together
and to do that you distribute the 6 to remove the parenthesis
6x-(6)2-4x=16 turns into
6x-12-4x=16
because -4x and 6x are terms of the same degree they can be added together
youll get
2x-12=16
now solve for x
2x-12=16 get x term alone by addind 12
2x=28 now divide 2
x=14
