Solve this two step equation:6x-24=30

Let's solve your equation step-by-step. 6x - 24 = 30

Step 1: Add 24 to both sides. 6x - 24 + 24 = 30+24 6x = 54

Step 2: Divide both sides by 6. 6x 6 = 546 x = 9

Answer: x = 9

Your first step is to add 24 to both sides so you can get rid of the - 24 without making the equation uneven, so that you get:

6x=54

Then, to isolate x, you divide both sides by 6, for the same reasoning I explained earlier. You will then have your answer, in which x is equal to 9.

To check, substitute 9 into the equation:

6 (9) - 24=30

54-24=30

30=30
