Question

Solve for x:
x-6=26

a) x = -27
b) x = -15
c) x = 15
d) x = 27

Answer 1

The solution to the equation x - 6 = 26 is found by adding 6 to both sides, resulting in x = 32. None of the provided options match this solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the equation x - 6 = 26 for x, simply add 6 to both sides of the equation, which gives us x = 26 + 6. Carrying out the addition leads to x = 32. Thus, the solution to the equation is x = 32, which is not listed in the provided options.
