4x+a=6x, for x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x = a/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a=6x-4x a=2x a/2=x

OpenStudy (katrinakaif):

You ultimate goal on all linear problems are to get the "x" alone (in this case) To do so so, we must collect like terms. 4x + a = 6x And to do so, we must substract 4x on both sides: 4x + a = 6x -4x -4x ----------- 0x + a = 2x or simply: a = 2x Now again, we need to get "x" alone. This time, we need to divide: a = 2x - -- 2 2 a/2 = x
