-Please Help! This is homework due in for Monday! Xx

Answer 1

6-6x= -24

Subtract 6 from -24 = -30

divide -30 by -6= 5

x=5

Answer 2

6 - 6x = -24

divide by 6:  1 - x = -4

subtract 1 from both sides:  -x = -4 -1

                                              -x = -5

                                         x = 5

Proof: 1 - 5 = -4
