Step-by-step explanation:

10x = 6 + 9x

9x             9x

19x = 6

0.315789474 = x

.315 = x

Answer 2

Answer:

Subtract 9x from both sides of the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

To put x by itself, you need to first put all like terms together. So in order to do this, you need to put 10x and 9x together. Since 9x is positive, you need to subtract 9x from both sides of the equation.

Here is how you completely solve the equation:

1. 10x=6+9x
2. 10x-9x=6
3. 1x=6
4. x=6
