Answer 1

x=1
1.add 1 to both sides
2. subtract 6x from both sides
3. you should have 3x=3
4. then divide both sides by 3

Answer 2

1

Explanation:

Combine like terms first by subtracting 6x from both sides.

`6x+2=9x-1\\2=3x-1`

Next, add 1 to both sides.

`2=3x-1\\3=3x`

Finally, divide both sides by 3.

`3=3x\\1=x`
