help guys

OpenStudy (welshfella):

6x - 8 = 4x first get all terms in x to the left subtract 4x from both sides 6x - 4x - 8 = 4x - 4x 2x - 8 = 0 now add 8 to both sides can you continue?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont know :( :/

OpenStudy (welshfella):

if we add 8 to both sides we get -8 + 8 = 0 and right side becomes 8 2x - 8 + 8 = 8 2x = 8

OpenStudy (welshfella):

now if 2 times something is 8 what is that something?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0h wait, its the answer: -51?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@welshfella ???

OpenStudy (welshfella):

no I dont know how you got that 2 times x = 8 what do i multiply 2 by to get 8?

OpenStudy (welshfella):

thats what x will be

OpenStudy (anonymous):

multiply 2 by 8= 16?

OpenStudy (welshfella):

no 2x = 8 2x means 2 multiplied by x and 2 multiplied by x = 8 so x = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its 64? :/

OpenStudy (welshfella):

No 2 multiplied by 4 = 8 so x = 4

OpenStudy (welshfella):

2*4 = 8

OpenStudy (anonymous):
