Question

1. solve the following equation for x; 6x + 10 = x + 30 enter your next step here

Explanation:

Step1: Subtract x from both sides

$6x - x + 10 = x - x + 30$
$\implies 5x + 10 = 30$

Step2: Subtract 10 from both sides

$5x + 10 - 10 = 30 - 10$
$\implies 5x = 20$

Step3: Divide by 5 on both sides

$\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{20}{5}$
$\implies x = 4$

Answer:

$x = 4$
