Solve
-2(1 + 2x) = 2(2x + 3)

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(1 + 2x) = 2(2x + 3)

-2 - 4x = 4x + 6

Subtract 4x to both sides

-2 - 8x = 6

Add 2 to both sides

-8x = 8

Divide both sides by -8 to get x alone

-8x/-8 = 8/-8

x = -1

Hope this helps and pls mark me brainliest if you can:)

That will be x= -1.

Divide both sides by -2
-2(1+2x)=2(2x+3) to 1+2x=-(2x+3)

Then remove the parentheses
1+2x=-2x-3

Then move the variable 2x to the left where the one is.
2x+2x=-3 - 1

Then add both 2x + 2x to 4x
4x=-3 - 1

Subtract -3 -1 which is -4

Now divide both sides by 4
4x=-4 which equals -1

That was a lot but hopefully it made sense :)
