Answer:
x = -1
Explanation:
1. Simplifying
6x + 4 = 4x + 2
2. Reorder the terms
4 + 6x = 4x + 2 to 4 + 6x = 2 + 4x
3. Solving
4 + 6x = 2 + 4x
4. Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Then add '-4x' to each side of the equation.
4 + 6x + -4x = 2 + 4x + -4x
5. Combine like terms: 6x + -4x = 2x
4 + 2x = 2 + 4x + -4x
6. Combine like terms: 4x + -4x = 0
4 + 2x = 2 + 0
4 + 2x = 2
7. Add '-4' to each side of the equation.
4 + -4 + 2x = 2 + -4
8. Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0
0 + 2x = 2 + -4
2x = 2 + -4
9. Combine like terms: 2 + -4 = -2
2x = -2
10. Divide each side by '2'.
x = -1
11. Simplifying
x = -1
