ANSWER:

2x+6=10


ANSWER:

2x+6=10

Here we want to find out the values of the variable 'x' in the given equation.


Collect like terms together.



Here we have one x term that is 2x and two constant terms, that is 6 and 10.
So retain x term in one side and bring constant term to the other side.


For that subtract 6 from both sides of the equation, because here we have + 6 in the left side. ( if it is -6 we should add 6 on both sides.


2x + 6 -6 = 10 -6

==> 2x = 4

Divide both sides of the equation by 2.

==> 2x/2 = 4/2

==> x = 2

So solution is x = 2


Hope you understood.
