Answer:
1. x= -10
2. x=-7
Step-by-step explanation:
1.
distribute -2(x+4) to make -2x-8=12
add 8 from both sides to make -2x=20
divide both sides by -2 to get x alone and you get x=-10
2.
distribute 1/2(4-6x) to make 2-3x=23
subtract 2 from both sides to make -3x=21
divide both sides by -3 to get x alone and you get x= -7
