Hey there!


Solving for
x , right ?

If so, follow these steps so it can be easier for you to solve this particular problem!

Firstly, let's add the number
4 to each of your sides

Like:
6x - 4 + 4 \\ \\ = 8 + 4

This now gives us:
6x = 12

Divide by the number
6 on each of your sides for this portion!

Like:
(6x)/(6) = (12)/(6)

Therefore the value of
x is
2


x = 2

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
