2(3x-5)+4x-10=4x+2(x+6)

x= 8

Step-by-step explanation:

2(3x-5)+4x-10=4x+2(x+6)

Cancel equal terms on both sides of the equation

2(3x-5)-10= 2(x+6)

Distribute 2 through the parenthesis

6x-10-10= 2x+12

Calculate the difference

6x-10-10= 2x+12

6x-20= 2x+12

Move variable to the left-hand side and change its sign

6x-20= 2x+12

-2x        -2x

4x-20= 12

Add 20 to both sides.

4x-20= 12

  +20 +20

4x= 32

Divide both sides of the equation by 4

4x= 32

4     4

x= 8

i think there was a typo. you wrote pat brings 3 quarts of ice-cream to the party. each serving of ice-cream is 1 6 quart. how many total servings of ice-cream does pat bring to the party? i think the bold is supposed to be 1/6. so 1 quart of ice cream = 6 servings. 6 * 3 = 18.
