Hey there!
This is a pretty long equation, but don't let it confuse you- it's full of like terms.
Let's clean up the right side by adding the 4x and the 2x:

6x+2=3x-7

We can subtract 3x from both sides:

3x + 2 = -7

Subtract two to both sides to get:

3x = -9

Finally, divide both sides by 3 to get:

x = -3

Hopefully this helps!

First, you should add your like-terms on the left side.
6x+2=3x-7
Then subtract 3x from 6x to get rid of the x on the right side.
3x+2=-7
After that, subtract two from -7.
3x=-9
Divide -9 by 3.
x=-3.

BRAINLIEST if -x = x -6 then x = A. -6 B. -3 C. 0 D. 3 explain please

Paul [167]

Answer:

D or 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation you are saying is

-x = x-6

If you move both x's to one side, you get

-2x = -6

From this, you can simplify by dividing by -2

x=3, or D.

Hope this helped!

What is the y-intercept of the following equation. 3x-2y=6

tester [92]

3x-2y=6

1) Add -3x to both sides.
 3x−2y=6
+3x +3x
-----------------
−2y=−3x+6

2) Divide both sides by -2.
 $\frac{-2y}{-2}$ = $\frac{−3x+6}{-2}$

y=32x−3

3) Substitute the y with the equation
3x-2(32x-3)=6
3x-64x+6=6

4) Combine like terms
3x-64x+6=6
-61x+6=6

5) Subtract 6 from each side of the equation
-61x+6=6
-6 -6 (+6-5 gets crossed out)
--------------
-61x=0

6) Divide both sides by -61
$\frac{-61x}{-61} = \frac{0}{-61}$
x=0

============================================================

Now that you've got you x intercept, use the x value and substitute it into the
y=32x−3

y=32(0)-3
y=0-3
y=-3
