Well, here you are trying to get x by itself so:

add 6 to both sides-
4x = 28

divide by 4 from both sides-
4x /4 = 28 /4

So, x = 7

The original equation is 4x - 6 = 22. We can solve this by first isolating x, and that can be done by initially adding 6 to both sides. After doing this, we are left with 4x = 28. Now, we can simply divide both sides by 4, giving us an x value of x = 7. Therefore, the answer to your problem is x = 7. Hope this helped and have a great Halloween!
