Answer 1

hello!
2-8x=-6

-6 + 2 / 8 = x

the answer is 0.5, also known as 1/2, also known as B.

Answer 2

Simplifying
2 + -8x = -6

Solving
2 + -8x = -6

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2' to each side of the equation.
2 + -2 + -8x = -6 + -2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0
0 + -8x = -6 + -2
-8x = -6 + -2

Combine like terms: -6 + -2 = -8
-8x = -8

Divide each side by '-8'.
x = 1

Simplifying
x = 1
