Question

directions: drag each equation to the correct location on the model. not all equations will be used. finish the calculation below by arranging the steps to solve for x. step 1: 6x - 4 = 2x + 24 step 2: step 3: step 4: x = 16 6x = 2x + 28 x = 7 6x = 2x + 20 4x = 20 x = 24 4x = 28 x = 5

Explanation:

Step1: Start with the equation

$6x=2x + 28$

Step2: Subtract $2x$ from both sides

$6x-2x=2x + 28-2x$
$4x=28$

Step3: Divide both sides by 4

$\frac{4x}{4}=\frac{28}{4}$
$x = 7$

Answer:

$x = 7$
