Simplifying 6x = 2x + 40 Reorder the terms: 6x = 40 + 2x Solving 6x = 40 + 2x Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2x' to each side of the equation. 6x + -2x = 40 + 2x + -2x Combine like terms: 6x + -2x = 4x 4x = 40 + 2x + -2x Combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0 4x = 40 + 0 4x = 40 Divide each side by '4'. x = 10
so the answer is x = 10

6x=2x+40
subtract 2x from both sides

4x=40
divide both sides by 4

x=10

Malcolm is driving 1,273 miles from Wichita to Charleston for a family reunion. He drives 418 miles the first day and 384 miles

If Malcolm has driven 418 miles which is rounded to 420, and he has driven 384 miles which is rounded to 380, he has driven around 800 miles so far. Then you would subtract 800 from 1,273 you would get around 470 miles. That means Malcolm has 470 miles left to drive.
