0 . , +

Explanation:

Step1: Add 6 to both sides

To isolate the term with \(x\), we add 6 to both sides of the equation \(4x - 6 = 8\). This gives us \(4x - 6 + 6 = 8 + 6\), which simplifies to \(4x = 14\).

Step2: Divide by 4

Now, we divide both sides of the equation \(4x = 14\) by 4 to solve for \(x\). So, \(x=\frac{14}{4}\), which simplifies to \(x = \frac{7}{2}=3.5\).

Answer:

\(3.5\) (or \(\frac{7}{2}\))
