Question

What is x in 5x - 6 = 44

Answer 1

The answer is x=10
Step-by-step explanation:
When you set up the equation you have to cancel out the 6 by adding 6 on both sides like this -
5x-6=44
+6 +6
You then wind up getting
5x=50
Then the last step is to divide by 5 on each side.
5/5x=50/5
X=10

Answer 2

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 6 = 44

(add 6 to 44)

5x=50

(divide 5 into 50)

x=10
