Hope this helps :)
Hope this helps :)Explanation and Check part below.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Get the variable on one side by subtracting x.
x - 6 = 1/3x + 4
- 1 x - 1 x
- 6 = - 2/3x + 4
2. Subtract 4 which is the inverse operation of addition.
- 6 = - 2/3x + 4
- 4 - 4
- 10 = - 2/3x
3. Divide by - 2/3 which is the invers eoperation of multiplication.
- 10 = - 2/3x
- 2/3 - 2/3
(Keep,Change,Change - KCC method)
- 10 ÷ - 2/3 = - 10 × - 3/2 = 30/2 = 15
- 10 = - 2/3x
- 2/3 - 2/3
15 = x → x = 15
Check:
15 - 6 = 1/3(15) + 4
9 = 15/3 + 4
9 = 5 + 4
9 = 9
True statement.
