Question

If -2x +6=24 what is the value of x

Answer 1

Answer:

- 9

Step-by-step explanation:

- 2x + 6 = 24

=> - 2x + 6 = 24

    2 ( - x + 3 ) = 24

    divide by 2 on both sides,

    - x + 3 = 12

    - x = 9

    multiply - 1 on both sides,

    x = - 9

Answer 2

Answer:

=> The value of $x=-9$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:-

$-2x +6=24$

To find:- The value of the expression,

Now, by using the method of transposition:

As we have,

=> $-2x +6=24$

Now subtract both sides by $6$:

=> $-2x +6-6=24-6$

By further calculation, we get

=> $-2x=18$

Divide both sides, by $-2$:

=> $x=-9$

Hence, the required solution is -9.
