Answer:

s = -3

Explanation:

note: no matter what you do to an equation, as long as you repeat it on both sides the equation will still be true.

6 = 4s + 18

subtract 18 from both sides of the equation

6 - 18 = 4s + 18 - 18

6 - 18 = 4s

-12 = 4s

divide both sides of the equation by 4

-12/4 = 4s/4

-12/4 = s

-3 = s
