Equation
Answer
x = 4

6x-4=20

Solve the equation by isolating x:

Step 1 — Add 4 to both sides

Move the constant −4 to the right side:

6x − 4 + 4 = 20 + 4

6x = 24

Step 2 — Divide both sides by 6

Isolate x by dividing both sides by the coefficient 6:

6x / 6 = 24 / 6

x = 4

x = 4

-1 1 2 3 4 5 -30 -20 -10 10 (4, 0) (0, -24)

How to solve 6x-4 = 20

To solve 6x-4 = 20, isolate x by performing inverse operations on both sides — first removing constants, then dividing by the coefficient of x. This gives x = 4.
