Respuesta :
2x - 6 = 14
Add 6 to both sides to isolate the x
2x = 20
Divide 2 to both sides since x is multipled to x
x = 10
To check your work plug 10 into the equation
2(10) -6 = 14
20 - 6 = 14
14 = 14
and it works

Isolate by the x on one side of the equation.
First, add 6 from both sides.
[tex]\displaystyle \mathsf{2x-6+6=14+6}[/tex]
Solve.
Add the numbers from left to right.
[tex]\displaystyle \mathsf{14+6=20}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle \mathsf{2x=20}[/tex]
Then, divide by 2 from both sides.
[tex]\displaystyle \mathsf{\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{20}{2} }}[/tex]
Solve.
