# How do you get the answer to 5 - 1/2(x - 6) = 4?

 +1 vote! +5 you voted Answer by  Lordschild (1398) First subtract 5 from each side of the equation. Then multiply each side by -1. Then multiply each side by 2. Then add 6 to each side. The answer is x = 8.

Now we get x-6=2. At last transpose -6 to right. x=2+6. Adding 2 and 6 we get 8. Therefore the value of x is 8. This the solution of the above equation.
