x/4 + 2 = 6
Multiply both sides by 4
Divide both sides by 4
Subtract 2 from both sides
Add 2 to both sides

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION
30 sec โข 1 pt
5x - 7 = 18
Subtract 7 from both sides
Divide both sides by 5
Add 7 to both sides
Multiply both sides by 5
Answer explanation
To solve for x in the equation 5x - 7 = 18, we first need to isolate the term with x. Adding 7 to both sides eliminates the -7, leading to 5x = 25, which allows us to solve for x.

x/3 - 4 = 2
Subtract 3 from both sides
Add 4 to both sides
Multiply both sides by 3
Divide both sides by 3
Answer explanation
To solve for x, first isolate the term with x. Adding 4 to both sides of the equation x/3 - 4 = 2 gives x/3 = 6, which simplifies the equation correctly.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION
30 sec โข 1 pt
6x + 2 = -10
Add 2 to both sides
Multiply both sides by 6
Subtract 2 from both sides
Divide both sides by 6
Answer explanation
To isolate x, we need to eliminate the constant on the left side. Subtracting 2 from both sides simplifies the equation to 6x = -12, making it easier to solve for x.
