Answer:

x = -8

Explanation:

To answer this equation solve for x. When doing so make sure to get x one side

First subtract 4x from each side. This means the equation is now

x + 6 = -2

Next subtract 6 on both side and you should find x

x = -8

Hi my lil bunny!

\boxed{x = -8}


5x+6=4x-2


5x + 6 - 4x = 4x - 2 - 4x


x + 6 = -2


x + 6 - 6 = -2 - 6


x = -8
