Question

Solve the equation for x.

-6x + 32=14x - 28

Answer 1

x=3

Explanation:

grouping like terms

32+28=14x+6x

60=20x

divide through by 20

x=3

Answer 2

-6x + 32 = 14x - 28

First, arrange like terms:

32 + 28 = 14x + 6x

Then simplify the equation and divide both sides by 20 to find x.

60 = 20x

`(60)/(20) =(20x)/(20)`

=> x = 3
