how do you solve this equation 6x-2=2x+6?

6x-2=2x+6

Subtract 2x from each side
4x - 2 = 6

Add 2 to each side
4x = 8

Divide each side by 4
x = 8/4 = 2

6x-2=2x+6
or,6x-2x=6+2
or,4x=8
or,x=2

6x-2=2x+6
6x-2x=6+2
4x=8
x=8/4
x=2

6x-2=2x+6

6x-2x = 2+6

4x = 8

x=2

6x-2=2x+6
6x-2x=6+2
4x=8
x=2

Take away the 2x
4x-2 = 6
Plus 2
4x = 8
Divide by 4
x=2

Your chum is optimal 6x^2 - 2x = 0 x is a basic element, so take an x out x(6x - 2) = 0 Now, set the two factors equivalent to 0 x = 0 6x - 2 = 0 sparkling up for x x = 0 6x - 2 = 0 6x = 2 x = 2/6 x = a million/3 The x-intercepts would be 0 and a million/3, like your chum pronounced. EDIT: particular, you're astonishing, a is 6 and b is -2, purely replace x = -b/2a x = -(-2)/2(6) x = 4/12 x = a million/3, this is the x-coordinate of the vertex Now, replace this into the equation to locate the y-coordinate. 6x^2 - 2x = y 6(a million/3)^2 - 2(a million/3) = y 6(a million/9) - (2/3) = y 2/3 - 2/3 = y 0 = y, the y-coordinate is 0 consequently, the vertex is (a million/3 , 0)

6x-2=2x+6

subtract 2x from BOTH sides

4x-2=6

add 2 to BOTH sides

4x=8

divide by 4 on BOTH sides

x=2 :)

still need help? send me an email! good luck! :)

collect like terms:

6x - 2x = 6 + 2
4x = 8
x = 2

basically you do this
6x-2=2x+6 (+2)
6x=2x+8
then
6x=2x+8 (-2x)
4x=8 (8/4)
x=2

First thing to do is get the Xs all on one side and the numbers all on one side. Remembering that if something switches sides over the equals then it changes signs, so a 2 becomes a -2 for example.

So 6x-2=2x+6 becomes 6x-2x=2+6 then just cancel out normally :)

6x-2x=2+6
4x=8
x=8 divided by 4
x=2 :)

4x = 8
x = 2

6x+2x= 6-2
8x=4
x= 8/4
= 2
