Answer:

The value of x is -0.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

[tex]-2(5x-6)+6x=4(x+4)[/tex]

Use distributive property to solve the above equation.

[tex]-2(5x)-2(-6)+6x=4(x)+4(4)[/tex]

[tex]-10x+12+6x=4x+16[/tex]

[tex]-4x+12=4x+16[/tex]

Add 4x both sides.

[tex]12=8x+16[/tex]

Subtract 16 from both sides.

[tex]-4=8x[/tex]

Divide both sides by 8.

[tex]\frac{-4}{8}=\frac{8x}{8}[/tex]

[tex]-0.5=x[/tex]

Therefore value of x is -0.5.
