2x + 36 = 8x
36=8x-2x
36 = 6x
X=6

Answer:

x = 6

Explanation:

Subtract, simplify, subtract

$2x+36-36=8x-36\\2x=8x-36\\2x-8x=8x-36-8x\\$

Simplify

-6x=-36

Divide

(-6x)/(-6)=(-36)/(-6)

Reverse the equation by the fraction rule

$\rightarrow (6x)/(6)\\= x\\\rightarrow (36)/(6)\\= 6\\6 = x\\\uparrow\downarrow\\x = 6$
