Question

2x+6=22 solve how do you work it out what steps

Answer 1

Answer: 8

Steps:
First minus the 6 from the 22 because we need the x alone
2x = 22 - 6
2x = 16

Then divide by 2 so we can get the x alone
x= 16 divide by 2
x = 8

Answer 8

Answer 2

x = 8

Explanation:

The goal is to make x by itself (isolate)

2x + 6 = 22

first, subtract 6 from each side

2x = 22 - 6

2x = 16

next, divide each side by 2

x = 16 / 2

x = 8
