Solve the following equation
2j+6=46
Solve for j
2j + 6 = 46
Divide each side by 2
| 2j | |
| 2 |
| = |
| 6 |
| 2 |
Group constants
Group our constants 6 and 46.
subtract 6 from both sides
2j + 6 - 6 = 46 - 6
Cancel 6 on the left side:
2j = 40
Divide each side of the equation by 2
| 2j | |
| 2 |
| = |
| 40 |
| 2 |
j = 20
Final Answer
j = 20
