Question

What does x = when 2x + 6 = 6x-2

Answer 1

when 2x+6=6x-2, x=2. :) Hope this helps.

Answer 2

we are given

`2x+6=6x-2`

we will isolate x

so, firstly we will move all x terms on any one side

We will add both sides 2

`2x+6+2=6x-2+2`

`2x+8=6x`

now, we can subtract both sides 2x

`2x+8-2x=6x-2x`

`8=4x`

`4x=8`

now, we can divide both sides by 4

and we get

`x=2`......Answer
