3 of 43 of 4 Items Question 3(c – 2) = 2(c – 6) (1 point)
To solve the equation, we can start by distributing the 2 on the right side of the equation:
3(c - 2) = 2(c - 6)
After distributing, the equation becomes:
3c - 6 = 2c - 12
Next, we can simplify the equation by subtracting 2c from both sides:
c - 6 = -12
Finally, we can solve for c by adding 6 to both sides:
c = -12 + 6
c = -6
Therefore, the solution to the equation 3(c - 2) = 2(c - 6) is c = -6.
