Answer:

14

Explanation:

okay.. so basically you have 2x+6=34 right? so basically i’m gonna tell you the easiest way to do this

so you’re gonna start off by separating the 2x from the 6=34.

now that you’ve done that, let’s focus on the 6=34. so to get your answer, start by subtracting 6 from 34 so (34 - 6 = 28)

now that you’ve got that, keep the number 28 in mind. youre gonna want to take 2 and multiply by x. but 2x = 28, so what do you multiply by 2 to make 28? 14. so x is 14. to check your work, let’s see.

2 x 14 + 6 = 34?

2 x 14 = 28 + 6 = 34.

34 = 34

so, x is 14. hope this helped!

You want to try to isolate the x:
First subtract 6 from both sides so you get 2x=28

Then divide both side by 2 so you get x=14 which is your answer :)

ANSWER: x=14
