1) Write original problem.
2) Remeber GEMDAS:
g = grouping symbols, e = exponents
md = mulitiplication or division (whichever comes first in the equation)
as = addition and subtraction (whichever comes first in the equation)
Therefore, start with the inward-most brackets by distributing.
3) Combine like terms.
4) Distribute.
5) Final Answer!!
1) 4[x-2(x-3)]
2) 4[x-2x+6]
3) 4[-x+6]
4) -4x+24
5) final answer with given info = -4x + 24

First distribute the -2 to (x-3) to get 4(x-2x+6), then solve for the parenthesis to get 4(-x+6), and finally distribute the four to end up with -4x+24.

4[x - 2(x - 3)]=
First work inside the brackets.
= 4[x - 2x + 6]
= 4[-x + 6]
= -4x + 24

4[x-2(x-3)]=4[x-2x-6]=4[-x-6] = -4x -24 = 4x + 24

4[x-2(x-3)]=
4[x-2x- 6]=
4x- 8x- 24=
-4x -24=
+24= +24
-4x= 24
-4x/-4= 24/- 4
x= -6
