Maths question.
Solve
4(x - 1) = 2(6 - 2x)

Use distributive property
4x - 4 = 12 - 4x
8x = 16
X = 2

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define equation

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

Step 2: Solve for x

Distribute:                              4x - 4 = 12 - 4xAdd 4x on both sides:          8x - 4 = 12Add 4 to both sides:             8x = 16Divide 8 on both sides:        x = 2

Step 3: Check

Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.

Substitute in x:                    4(2 - 1) = 2(6 - 2(2))Multiply:                               4(2 - 1) = 2(6 - 4)Subtract:                              4(1) = 2(2)Multiply:                               4 = 4

Here we see that 4 does indeed equal 4.

∴ x = 2 is a solution of the equation.
