\(2-6(3q+1)=-112\)
Distribute:
\(2+(-6)(3q)+(-6)(1)=-112\)
\(2+-18q+-6=-112\)
Combine Like Terms:
\((-18q)+(2+-6)=-112\)
\(-18q+-4=-112\)
\(-18q-4=-112\)
Add 4 to both sides:
\(-18q-4+4=-112+4\)
\(-18q=-108\)
Divide both sides by -18:
\(\frac{-18q}{-18} = \frac{-108}{-18}\)
Answer:
\(q=6\)
Good luck with your studies, I hope this helps!~
