Question

Solve for x and simplify answer as much as possible

Answer 1

x= -1

Explanation:

firstly group the like terms

4-6=2x

-2=2x

divide both sides by 2

-2/2=2x/2

-1=x

therefore x is -1

Answer 2

`x=-1`

Explanation:

`4=6+2x`

Flip the equation:

`2x+6=4`

Subtract 6 from both sides:

`3x+6-6=4-6`

`2x=-2`

Divide both sides by 2:

`2x/2=-2/2`

`x=-1`
