Question

5x minus 6 equal 44?

Answer 1

x=10

Explanation:

Add 6 to both sides.

5x=44+6

Add 44 and 6 to get 50.

5x=50

Divide both sides by 5.

x= 50/5

Divide 50 by 5 to get 10.

x=10

Answer 2

x = 10

Explanation:

I'm not entirely sure what you're asking, however we know that:

5x-6=44

5x must be 50, as 50-6=44

50 divided by 5 is 10, so 10x
