It’s a process of bringing one variable to the side with different forms of mathematical properties. First, subtract 2 from the left side and add it to the right side. Then divide 1/4x by 1/4 to get x alone, and divide the right side (-2) by 1/4, which will give you the answer to x. Let me know if you need help with anything else!
