Step-by-step explanation: 6(x+4)=30

(Distributive property): 6x+24=30

( Transposition method): 6x=30-24( + becomes -) 6x=6

(Transpose 6 to rhs) x=6/6( since it was multiplication on LHS it becomes division in RHS) x=1

Answer:

x = 1

Explanation:

6(x+4)=30 (divide both sides by 6)

(x+4) = 30/6

x+4 = 5 (subtract 4 from both sides)

x = 5 - 4

x = 1
