Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:βˆ’ 9/2Step-by-step explanation:Let's solve your equation step-by-step.4(xβˆ’6)+6=6xβˆ’9Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.4(xβˆ’6)+6=6xβˆ’9(4)(x)+(4)(βˆ’6)+6=6x+βˆ’9(Distribute)4x+βˆ’24+6=6x+βˆ’9(4x)+(βˆ’24+6)=6xβˆ’9(Combine Like Terms)4x+βˆ’18=6xβˆ’94xβˆ’18=6xβˆ’9Step 2: Subtract 6x from both sides.4xβˆ’18βˆ’6x=6xβˆ’9βˆ’6xβˆ’2xβˆ’18=βˆ’9Step 3: Add 18 to both sides.βˆ’2xβˆ’18+18=βˆ’9+18βˆ’2x=9Step 4: Divide both sides by -2.βˆ’2x/βˆ’2=9/βˆ’2x=βˆ’9/2
