Question

3 - x/2 = 6 (Solve each equation) Check your answer

Answer 1

Answer to question
3-x/2=6
Subtract 3 from both sides
-x/2=3
Multiply 3 by -2
Final Answer: x=-6

Work check
3-x/2=6
Substitute -6 for x since you solved for x in the last equation
3-(-6)/2
Convert 3-(-6/2) to 3+6/2
3+6/2
Divide 6 by 2
3+3
Add
Final Answer: 6 (This 6 is the same 6 we used to solve for x in the first equation).
