Complete the equation involving x. Order terms like the physical situation, and don't simplify. A 6 foot wide painting should be centered on a 10 foot wide wall. Type the left side of an equation that can be used to determine how many feet (x) should be on each side of the painting.

Answer:

x = (10-6)/2 = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

This is not German and in Germany you would use the metric system, not your feet to measure a wall but here is the answer to your math problem:
When the painting is 6 feet wide and your wall is 10 feet wide, the remaining space on the wall is 10-6 = 4 feet. When you want to center the painting on the wall, the space on each side must be equal, therefore divide by 2.
