Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

(4 · x) - (4 · 6) + 6 = 6x - 2

4x - 24 + 6 = 6x - 2

4x - 18 = 6x - 2

Isolate x.

4x = 6x - 2 + 18

4x = 6x + 16

4x - 6x = 16

-2x = 16

x = 16 ÷ -2

x = -8

I hope this helps! :)

Answer:

-8 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x - 6) + 6 = 6x-2​

Distribute the 4

4x - 24 +6 = 6x-2

Combine like terms

4x - 18 = 6x-2

Subtract 4x from each side

4x-18-4x = 6x-2-4x

-18 = 2x-2

Add 2 to each side

-18+2 = 2x-2+2

-16 = 2x

Divide each side by 2

-16/2 =2x/2

-8 =x

Which justification describes the process?
tester [92]

Answer:

Option 1 - Using the Subtraction Property of Equality, 2 is subtracted from both sides of the equation.          

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Process

Step 1: 4x + 2 = 10

Step 2: 4x = 8

To find : Which justification describes the process?

Solution :

From step 1 to step 2, we subtract 2 both sides

Step 1: 4x + 2 = 10

Subtracting 2 both side,

⇒ 4x + 2-2 = 10-2

Step 2: 4x = 8

So, The best justification is 'Using the Subtraction Property of Equality, 2 is subtracted from both sides of the equation'.

Therefore, Option 1 is correct.

algol [13]

Answer:

x >-8

Step-by-step explanation:

22−2x<38

Subtract 22 from each side

Can anybody help pls
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

2t

Step-by-step explanation:

The expressions are not the same because different terms are negative. We can visualize the difference by rewriting the expressions as 13t + (-2t) and (-13t) + 2t. In the first expression, 13t-2t, the 2t is negative because it is being subtracted, and subtracting a number is the same as adding a negative.
