you need to get x by itself
since x is multiplied by 2, you must divide it by two so you get x=...
however, to keep it with the 2:6 ratio, you need to divide BOTH sides by 2
x=3

-2x-6= -2x-6Another answer:-2x-6 = 2x+6-2x-2x = 6+6-4x = 12x = -3
-2x-6 = 14 -2x = 14+6 -2x = 20 x = -10
I meant 2x+6
6x-y=-14 2x-3y=6
It is a contradiction! 6x - 4x - 6 = 2x 2x - 6 = 2x -6 = 0 false
