6x−24=x−2

FOD:

ಠ_ಠ So this will require three steps now....the first step is subtracting "x" from both sides, and since this is different i will show you how to do it as well.

FOD:

ಠ_ಠ 6x−24−x=x−2−x, And this will turn into: 5x−24=−2

FOD:

ಠ_ಠ Then we add 24 to both sides, 5x−24+24=−2+24 5x=22 We aren't done yet. One more step.

lonely:

so it 22

FOD:

ಠ_ಠ We then have to divide both sides by 5, and we get our answer. 22 over 5.

FOD:

ಠ_ಠ That is how you solve those types of equations.

lonely:

someone said it 4.4

FOD:

ಠ_ಠ How did they get that?

FOD:

ಠ_ಠ If you follow the proper steps, the final answer should be 22/5 unless someone has another way of doing it. If that's the case, show me how the person got that solution.

FOD:

ಠ_ಠ Oh, i see where you got that. 22 divided by 5. What i meant is that 22/5 is the answer. Is there any answer choices with this question?
