First you need to subtract 6 from both sides of the equation.

6 - 6 - 4x = -38 - 6

-4x = -44           -Now divide both sides by -4.

-4x / -4 = -44 / -4

x = 11

Now check:

6 - 4(11) = -38

6 - 44 = -38

-38 = -38

Hope this helps you!

Isolate the x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponents (& roots), Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction)

First, subtract 6 from both sides

-4x + 6 (-6) = -38 (-6)

-4x = -38 - 6

-4x = -44

Next, fully isolate the x by dividing -4 from both sides

(-4x)/-4 = (-44)/-4

x = -44/-4

x = 11

11 is your answer for x.

-6x + 18 = 7- (4x + 9) help will give brainlyist
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

X = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

-6x + 18 = 7 - (4x + 9)

first we simplify the parentheses.

distribute the invisible number one created by the negative sign in front of the parentheses to get -6x + 18 = 7 - 4x - 9

then simplify further by subtracting 9 from the right side, leaving you with

-6x + 18 = -2 - 4x

next, add 2 to both sides to isolate the variable.

-6x + 20 = -4x

then, to isolate the variable further add 6x to both sides.

20 = -4x

divide both sides by -4 to isolate the variable

-5 = x

so, x = -5
