Question

what is the solution to this equation?
4x - 6 + 2x = 18
a. x = 2
b. x = 6
c. x = 12
d. x = 4

Explanation:

Step1: Combine like terms

$4x + 2x - 6 = 18$
$6x - 6 = 18$

Step2: Isolate the variable term

$6x = 18 + 6$
$6x = 24$

Step3: Solve for $x$

$x = \frac{24}{6}$
$x = 4$

Answer:

D. $x=4$
