8 - 2x + 6 = 24
(8 + 6) - 2x = 24
14 - 2x = 24 <em>subtract 14 from both sides</em>
-2x = 10 <em>divide both sides by (-2)</em>
<h3>
x = -5</h3>
The converse would be If x² = 100 then x = -10
So essentially if the conditional statement is p → q then the converse is q → p (In essence, the converse of a conditional statement is formed by interchanging the hypothesis and the conclusion.)
