thanks yahoo for equation help .?

Question

i want to thank yahoo for equation help now i need help please with this kind of equation 4x-6=-2 and 6x-10=-4. it was the extra home work help that helped me. even more than the teachers. now can you show your work on these two . thank you.

Answer 1

These are "two-step" equations.



First step: either add or subtract

Second step: multiply or divide



4x - 6 = 2

add 6 to both sides:

4x = 8

divide both sides by 4:

x = 2



6x - 10 = -4

add 10 to both sides:

6x = 6

divide both sides by 6:

x = 1



that's it! ;)

Answer 2

Well these are just equations where you have to combine the constants to get x.



4x=4

x=1



6x=6

x=1



What I did in the first equation was add 6 to both sides. Therefore, 6+(-2) =4. I then divided both sides by 4 to get x=1.



for the second one, I added 10 to both sides. Therefore, -4+(10)=6. I then divided each side by 6 to get x=1.

Answer 3

Have you really looked at these equations and tried to figure them out?

4x-6 = -2

4x = -2+6 = 4 (added 6 to both sides)

x = 1 (divided both sides by 4)





6x-10=-4

6x = -4+10 = 6 (added10 to both sides)

x = 1 (divided both sides by 6)



Whatever you do to one side, you have to do to the other side at the same time.

Answer 4

4x-6=-2

+6 +6

4x=4

/4 /4

x=1





6x-10=-4

+10 +10

6x=6

/6 /6

x=1

Answer 5

pay attention in class... these really aren't that difficult.



4x-6=-2

+6 +6

4x = 4

/4 /4



x = 1



6x -10 = -4

+10 +10

6x = 6

/6 /6

x = 1

Answer 6

4x-6=-2

Step1) add 6 on both sides

4x=4

Step2) divide 4 on both sides

x=1

--------------------------------------------------------------

6x-10=-4

Step1) Add 10 on both sides

6x=6

Step2) Divide 6 on both sides

x=1

Answer 7

this is so easy you really need to pay attention



just think what minus six equals -2



the answer is 4



so x=1



what minus 10 equals 4



6



so x=1
