Solve by Factoring 6(x+7)-20=6x

$6 (x + 7) - 20 = 6 x$

Step 1

Subtract $6 x$ from both sides of the equation.

$6 (x + 7) - 20 - 6 x = 0$

Step 2

Simplify $6 (x + 7) - 20 - 6 x$ .

Simplify each term.

Apply the distributive property.

$6 x + 6 \cdot 7 - 20 - 6 x = 0$

Multiply $6$ by $7$ .

$6 x + 42 - 20 - 6 x = 0$

Combine the opposite terms in $6 x + 42 - 20 - 6 x$ .

Subtract $6 x$ from $6 x$ .

$0 + 42 - 20 = 0$

Add $0$ and $42$ .

$42 - 20 = 0$

Subtract $20$ from $42$ .

$22 = 0$

Step 3

Since $22 \neq 0$ , there are no solutions.

No solution
