Question

find the root of 6x - 48= 0
I got x = -8
check my answer?

Answer 1

-8 or +8 ?

Answer 2

6x -48 = 0
6x = 48
...

Answer 3

it would be -48

Answer 4

right?

Answer 5

6x-48 =0
you would need to ADD 48 on both sides, right ?

Answer 6

6x-48 +48 = 0 +48

6x +0 = +48

6x = 48

Answer 7

if you add 48 together its 96 so you would have to subtract it from both sides

Answer 8

cause you have to cancel it out

Answer 9

see,
we need to find 'x'
so we need to isolate it

we have -48 with 6x
to first isolate 6x and get rid of -48
we do the inverse operation of subtraction(which is addition)
so that -48+48 becomes 0

so we ADD 48 on both sides
(now we never get 96, because we don't have 48+48)

Answer 10

ohh

Answer 11

6x - 48 + 48 = 0+48

6x = +48

Answer 12

x is 6?

Answer 13

6x = 48
to isolate x, we divide 6 on both sides
6x/6 = 48/6
x = 4/6 = 8 :)

Answer 14

nvm its x=8

Answer 15

YES

Answer 16
