In this problem, what does "x" equal?
Answer provided by our tutors
What you have type in
-8(6+6x)+4(-3+6x)
is not an equation, but expression, so the solver simplifies it up to
-24x - 60
thus, there is no solution for "x".
However, is you type in the equation
-8(6+6x)+4(-3+6x) = 0
you will get the following solution for "x":
x = -5/2
x = -2 1/2
