Step-by-step explanation:

solution

We going to do this process in a stepwise manner

given the expression

18=6(2x – 8)

1. open bracket on the left-hand side (distributive property)

18=12x-48

2. collect like terms

18+48=12x

66=12x

3. divide both sides by 12 we have

x= 66/12

x= 33/6

x=11/2
