x = 4

First you combine like terms:

8 + 4x = 24

Then solve:

4x = 24 - 8

4x = 16

x = 16/4

x = 4

8 - 2x + 6x = 24


The first step is to simply both sides of the equation.

8+-2x+6x=24

(−2x+6x)+(8)=24

4x + 8 = 24

The second step is to subtract 8 from both sides.

4x + 8 -8 = 24 - 8

4x = 16

The third and final step is to divide both sides by 4.

4x/4 = 16/4


x = 4.
