someone help me

Answer 1

x = 4

Explanation:

You can solve for "x" by rearranging the equation and getting the "x" by itself on one side. Remember, whatever you do to one side of the equation, you must do to the other side.

-6 + x = -2 <----- Original equation
+6 +6 <----- Add 6 to both sides to isolate "x"

0 + x = 4 <----- After the addition

x = 4 <----- Rewrite

Answer 2

None of the above (x = 4)

Explanation:

Now we have to,

→ find the required value of x.

The equation is,

→ -6 + x = -2

Then the value of x will be,

→ -6 + x = -2

→ x = -2 + 6

→ [ x = 4 ]

Hence, the value of x is 4.
