6x+9=39

The first step is subtracting 9 from both sides. This makes the equation:

6x=30

The second step is dividing by 6 on both sides. This would be the second step because x is being multiplied by 6, so you'd need to do the inverse and divide by 6. This would mean that x=5(because 30 divided by 6 equals 5).

Plug it back in to check:

6∙5+9=39

30+9=39

39=39

Therefore x=5 works.
