PLEASE HELP! EASY MATH!

Solve the equation and enter the value of x.

2x + (-6x) = -24

X = ?

Answer 1

X= 6

Explanation:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1.) Simplify both sides of the equation

2x − 6x = −24

2x + −6x = −24

Then, Combine Like Terms

(2x+ −6x) = −24

−4x = −24

−4x = −24

2.) Divide both sides by -4

−4x /−4 = −24 /−4

Which then gets you x = 6
