Question

4/6 x - 6 = - 24
Solve for X

Answer 1

Simplify 4/6x to 2/3x.
2/3x-6=-24.
Add 6 to both sides. 2/3x=-18.
Multiply both side by 3x. 2=-54x
Then divide both sides by -54x. -2/54=x
Simplify -2/54 to -1/27.
So x=-1/27

Answer 2

-27

Explanation:

4/6x-6=-24

+6 +6

4/6x=-18

6/4×4/6x=-18×6/4 ->multiply by reciprocal to get rid of x

x=-108/4

x=-27
