Question

What is the solution to this equation?

Answer 1

Answer:

A. x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, we first have to combine like terms:

4x - 6 + 2x = 18

6x - 6 = 18

Now, we take away 6 from the left side and add it to the right side:

6x - 6 = 18

     +6   +6

6x = 24

Then, we isolate the variable:

6x = 24

/6     /6

x = 4

Hope this helps :)

Answer 2

Answer:

Think

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - 6 + 2x = 18

You are solving for x so obviously you have to have your x variable on one side of the equal sign by itself.

So how do you do that? Combine the same calues together and seperate the rest

4x + 2x = 6x

6x = 18 + 6

6x = 24

x = 3

Practice practice practice. Simple stuff. You got this!
