Solution :

  • 4x - 6 = 2

  • 4x = 2 + 6

  • 4x = 8

  • x = 8 ÷ 4

  • x = 2

let's check if x = 2 is solution of 4x - 6 = 2

by plugging the value of x as 2 in the given equation :


  • 4x - 6 = 2


  • (4 *2 ) - 6 = 2


  • 8 - 6 = 2


  • 2 = 2

here, L.H.S = R.H.S

so, the above statement is true.

x = 2

Explanation:


\begin{aligned}\rm 4x - 6&= 2\\\rm 4x &= 2 + 6\\\rm 4x&= 8\\\rm x &=(8)/(4)\\\bf x&=\underline{\underline{\bf 2}}\end{aligned}
