Answer:

x = 0

Explanation:

6 - 2x = 6x - 10x + 6

1. Isolate the variable (x)

  • Add 2x to both sides

6 - 2x = 6x - 10x + 6 -> 6 = 6x - 10x + 2x + 6

  • Subtract 6 from both sides

6x - 10x + 2x + 6 -> 0 = 6x - 10x + 2x

2. Combine like terms

0 = 6x - 10x + 2x -> 0 = -2x

3. Solve

  • Divide both sides by -2

0 = x

*Note: 0 divided by anything is 0 so 0/-2 is 0

(unless it is 0/0 which equals 1)
