Answer 3

Hello????

Answer 4

you could just do some subbing of your answers into the equation to see what is true....or you can just solve the equation.
6x + 2 = 14 --- subtract 2 from both sides
6x = 14 - 2
6x = 12 -- now divide both sides by 6
x = 2

understand ?? Any questions ?

Answer 5

I still don't get it

Answer 6

6x + 2 = 14.....we want to get the x term on one side of the equal sign, and everything else on the other side. So we will subtract 2 from both sides.
6x + 2 - 2 = 14 - 2 (and what you do on one side of the equal sign, you have to do on the other, Now we will combine terms..
6x = 12....you see how the +2 and the -2 on the left side cancel each other out.
Now we must divide both sides by 6 to get x by itself
(6/6)x = 12/6 --- 6/6 reduces to 1 and 1x is the same as x....so basically, we are left with x = 2
does that help ?
