Question

Solve the two-step equation. -9x 0. 4 = 4 Which operation must be performed to move all the constants to the right side of the equation? Then, which operation must be performed to isolate the variable? The solution to the equation is x =.

Answer 1

The steps needed to solve the given equation is required.

Adding the opposite value of the constant to both sides.

Divide both sides by the coefficient of the variable.

The solution to the equation is

The given equation is

In order to solve this we first move constants to the side opposite of the variable.

This is done by adding the opposite value of the constant to both sides.

Here is the constant so we add to both sides.

Now, we divide both sides by the coefficient of the variable.

The solution to the equation is
