Question 64356
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.
