Answer:

3(4x − 2) = 1

4x − 2 = 1/3

4x = 1/3 + 2

4x = 1/3 + 6/3

4x = 7/3

x = 7/12

Answer:

x = 7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

To start, let's distribute the 3 across the 4x and -2 to get 3(4x) + 3(-2) = 1. Now, we multiply to get 12x + (-6) = 1. Next, we get 12x - 6 = 1. Add 6 from both sides to get 12x = 7, and finally, if we divide both sides by 12, we get x = 7/12.
