Question

Solve 6x - 2 = 4x + 13 for x.

15/2
11/2
3/12

Answer 1

x =
`(15)/(2)`

Explanation:

Given

6x - 2 = 4x + 13 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

2x - 2 = 13 ( add 2 to both sides )

2x = 15 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x =
`(15)/(2)`

Answer 2

`6x - 2 = 4x + 13 \\ 6x - 4x = 13 + 2 \\ 2x = 15 \\ x = (15)/(2)`
