Q. Solve for x \mathrm{x} .\newline4(3x2)x+3=16 4(3 x-2)-x+3=-16 \newlineAnswer:
  1. Distribute and Simplify: First, distribute the 44 into the parentheses.4×3x4×2x+3=164 \times 3x - 4 \times 2 - x + 3 = -1612x8x+3=1612x - 8 - x + 3 = -16
  2. Combine Like Terms: Combine like terms on the left side of the equation.\newline(12xx)+(8+3)=16(12x - x) + (-8 + 3) = -16\newline11x5=1611x - 5 = -16
  3. Isolate Variable Term: Add 55 to both sides to isolate the term with the variable xx.\newline11x5+5=16+511x - 5 + 5 = -16 + 5\newline11x=1111x = -11
  4. Solve for x: Divide both sides by 1111 to solve for x.\newline11x11=1111\frac{11x}{11} = \frac{-11}{11}\newlinex=1x = -1
