Explanation:


6 - 4x = 7x - 9x + 10 \\ 6 - 4x = - 2x + 10 \\ 6 - 10 = - 2x + 4x \\ - 4 = 2x \\ x = ( - 4)/(2) \\ x = - 2

hope it helped you:)

Answer:


x=-2

Explanation:

So we have the equation:


6-4x=7x-9x+10

First, combine like terms on the right:


6-4x=-2x+10

Add 4x to both sides. The left cancels:


6=2x+10

Subtract 10 from both sides. The right cancels:


-4=2x

Divide both sides by 2:


x=-2

So, the value of x is -2.

And we're done!
