Solve 2 (x+6) = 2 (6+13x).

1/6 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve 2 (x+6) = 2 (6+13x) you have to distribute the coefficients first by turning 2 (x+6) = 2 (6+13x) into 2x+16=12+26x.

Then, you have to subtract 2x from both sides to get 16=12+24x and subtract 12 from both sides to get 4=24x.

Lastly, divide both sides by 24 to get 4/24 = x and simplify it to 1/6 = x

2x=26x

It is not correct mathematically!

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the braces

2x+12=12+26x

You have 12 on both sides so you can simply remove it.

The result: 2x=26x
