Question

What operations would you use to solve 3x-4=26. Please write the operations in the order you would use them.

Answer 1

1. Add 4 to both sides: 3x = 30

2. Divide 3 for both sides: x = 10

Answer 2

Remember you can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides

I would add 4 to both sides to get
3x+4-4=26+4 or 3x+0=30 or 3x=30
then I would divide both sides by 3 to get
(3x)/3=30/3 or x(3/3)=10 or x(1)=10 or x=10
