Question

What is the solution to the proportion 6-10 = 9-x

Answer 1

First 6-10=-4
So then you get -4=9-X
Now you subtract 9 on both side
-4=9-X
-9. -9
----------
-13= -X
Now make the X positive basically get rid of the negative on both sides
x=13
Check by substituting in 13 for X
9-13= -4
6-10= -4
