need help

OpenStudy (abb0t):

6-2x=18 if that helps. Now, subtract \(6\) from both sides. and then divide by \(-2\) to both sides. You should get one of the answers there. To help you, the answer is NOT option D. You are now left with A, B, or C.

OpenStudy (abb0t):

Yes, you're correct! -2x = 12 x = \(\frac{12}{-2}\) = -6
