6×+20=-4

Move +20 to the other side . Sign changes from +20 to -20.

6x+20-20= -4-20

6x= -24

divide by 6

6x/6= -24/6

Cross 6 and 6 , divide by 6 and then becomes 1*1*x= x

x= -4

Answer : x= -4

Answer:

x = -8/3

Explanation:

6x + 20 = -4

subtract 20 from both sides

6x = -16

divide by 2

3x = -8

x = -8/3
