In the equation 6x − 2 = −4x + 2, Spencer claims that the first step is to add 4x to both sides. Jeremiah claims that the first step is to subtract 6x from both sides. Who is correct? Explain. i dont need an answer thats just an example i just wanna know how you would choose which to do first because it seems like it would be the same either way

Answer:

[tex]x=\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]6x-2+2=-4x+2+2\\\\6x=-4x+4\\6x+4x=-4x+4+4x\\10x=4\\[/tex]

[tex]\frac{10x}{10}=\frac{4}{10}\\\\x=\frac{2}{5}[/tex]
