Answer:
-1/4 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
first, we distribute the 2 into the parenthesis
13 - 6x = 2(8 + 3x)
13 - 6x = 16 + 6x
then, we add 6x to both sides to move all of the x terms onto one side
13 - 6x = 16 + 6x
13 = 16 + 12x
next, we subtract 16 on both sides
13 = 16 + 12x
-3 = 12x
next, we divide both sides by 12 to isolate x
-3 = 12x
-3/12 = x
finally, we simplify the fraction
-3/12 = x
-1/4 = x
