Question

Solve the equation shown below.

1/2x−6=4

x =−4

x=−2

x=10

x=20

Answer 1

x = 20

Explanation:

→Add 6 to both sides:

`(1)/(2) x-6=4`

`(1)/(2) x=10`

→Multiply both sides by 2:

x = 20

Answer 2

1/2x - 6 = 4
Add 6 to both sides.
1/2x = 10
Multiple each side by 2/1 (reciprocal) to get x by itself.
x = 10 * 2/1
x = 20

Final answer: x = 20

Hope this helped!
