Question

Solve for x -x + 4=22

Answer 1

Answer: x = −18

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-4' to each side of the equation.

4 + -4 + -1x = 22 + -4

Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0

0 + -1x = 22 + -4

-1x = 22 + -4

Combine like terms: 22 + -4 = 18

-1x = 18

Divide each side by '-1'.

x = -18

Simplifying

x = -18

Answer 2

Answer:

x = -18

Step-by-step explanation:

-x + 4 = 22

- 4 -4

-x = 18

-x ÷ -1 = x

18 ÷ -1 = 18

x = -18
