A. 2x - 6 = 4
2x - 6 + 6 = 4 + 6
Simplify, you get 2x = 10
2x = 10
2x/2 = 10/2
Simplify again, x = 5
So therefore, your answer is x = 5.

B. -3x + 2 = 8
-3x + 2-2 = 8-2
Simplify, you get -3x = 6.
-3x = 6
-3x/-3 = 6/-3
Simplify again, you get x = -2
So your answer is x = -2

I hope this helps! Have a good day or night.

$(2x-8)(7x+5)=0\iff2x-8=0\ \vee\ 7x+5=0\\\\2x-8=0\qquad\text{add 8 to both sides}\\2x=8\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\\boxed{x=4}\\\\7x+5=0\qquad\text{subtract 5 from both sides}\\7x=-5\qquad\text{divide both sides by 7}\\\boxed{x=-\dfrac{5}{7}}$
