please answer ASAP i need it for my assignment !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

6+2x=x-6

Simplifying

6 + 2x = x + -6

Reorder the terms:

6 + 2x = -6 + x

Solving

6 + 2x = -6 + x

Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Add '-1x' to each side of the equation.

6 + 2x + -1x = -6 + x + -1x

Combine like terms: 2x + -1x = 1x

6 + 1x = -6 + x + -1x

Combine like terms: x + -1x = 0

6 + 1x = -6 + 0

6 + 1x = -6

Add '-6' to each side of the equation.

6 + -6 + 1x = -6 + -6

Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0

0 + 1x = -6 + -6

1x = -6 + -6

Combine like terms: -6 + -6 = -12

1x = -12

Divide each side by '1'.

x = -12

Simplifying

x = -12
