Bot GPT 3.5 To solve for x, we can start by simplifying the equation:
6x - 24 = x - 2
Next, we can collect like terms by subtracting x from both sides:
6x - x - 24 = x - x - 2
This simplifies to:
5x - 24 = -2
Next, we can isolate the variable x by adding 24 to both sides:
5x - 24 + 24 = -2 + 24
This simplifies to:
5x = 22
Finally, we can solve for x by dividing both sides by 5:
5x/5 = 22/5
This simplifies to:
x = 22/5
Therefore, the solution for x is x = 22/5.
