For this case we must solve the following equation:


-4x + 6 = -30

To solve we follow the steps below:

Subtracting 6 from both sides of the equation:


-4x = -30-6

Equal signs are added and the same sign is placed:


-4x = -36

We multiply by -1 on both sides of the equation:


4x = 36

We divide between 4 on both sides of the equation:


x = \frac {36} {4} = \frac {18} {2} = 9

Thus, the solution of the equation is
x = 9

Answer:


x = 9
