i really need help in math. im just in 6 grader and i don't understand this'
24x - 10 = 18x - 4
24x - 10 = 18x - 4
Subtract 18x from both sides of the equation.
24x - 18x - 10 = -4
Add 10 to both sides of the equation.
6x = 10 - 4
6x = 6
Divide both sides by 6.
x = 1
5 1/9 -1 4/9 =
Good job sue
eally you shouldent dumm your self down this math problem is hard for me to and im in 8th grade just ask for help and move on
No problem, I'm here to help! Let's solve the equation step by step.
First, let's simplify the equation by combining like terms. We have 24x on the left side and 18x on the right side of the equation. To eliminate the variable terms, we can subtract 18x from both sides of the equation:
24x - 10 - 18x = 18x - 4 - 18x
Simplifying this further, the equation becomes:
6x - 10 = -4
Next, let's isolate the variable term by moving the constant term to the other side. We can do this by adding 10 to both sides of the equation:
6x - 10 + 10 = -4 + 10
Simplifying this gives us:
6x = 6
Now, to find the value of x, we need to get rid of the coefficient 6 attached to x. We can do this by dividing both sides of the equation by 6:
(6x) / 6 = 6 / 6
Simplifying further, we get:
x = 1
So the solution to the equation is x = 1.
To check if the solution is correct, you can substitute x = 1 back into the original equation and see if both sides are equal. In this case, substituting x = 1 into the original equation would be:
24(1) - 10 = 18(1) - 4
24 - 10 = 18 - 4
14 = 14
Both sides are equal, so the solution x = 1 is correct.
I hope that helps! If you have any more math questions, feel free to ask.
