Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]6(x - 2)= - 18 \\ 6x - 12 = - 18 \\ 6x = 12 - 18 \\ 6x = - 6 \\ \\ x = - \frac{ 6 }{ 6} \\ \\ x = - 1[/tex]
Answer: x = -1
Step-by-step explanation: with the formula 6(x-2)= -18
you have to divide 6 by both sides so x-2 = -3
Then if you add 2 to both sides so x is by itself
x = -3 + 2
x = -1
