Which of the following describes the correct process for solving the equation 2x + 6 =
22 and arrives at the correct solution? (1 point)
Divide both sides by 6 and then add 2. The solution is x = 8.
Subtract 6 from both sides and then divide by 2. The solution is x = 8.
Add 6 to both sides of the equation and then divide by 2. The solution is x = 6.
Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation and then divide by 22. The solution is x = 16.

Answer 1

Answer: Your answer should be (B)

Subtract 6 from both sides and then divide by 2. The solution is x = 8.

Explanation:

If I'm correct It should look like this

2x + 6 = 22

2x +6(-6) = 22 (-6)

(Subtract 6 from both sides)

2x = 16

2x / 2 = 16 / 2

(Divide 2 from both sides)

Answer: x = 8
