Answer :
First you have to solve the equation 3x-8=-2.
Add 8 to both sides, giving you 3x=6. Now divide by 3
x=2. Now, you can find the value of x-6. Plug in 2 for x and solve.
2-6=-4
Add 8 to both sides, giving you 3x=6. Now divide by 3
x=2. Now, you can find the value of x-6. Plug in 2 for x and solve.
2-6=-4
3x - 8 = -2 |add 8 to both sides
3x = 6 |divide both sides by 3
x = 2
x - 6 = 2 - 6 = -4
3x = 6 |divide both sides by 3
x = 2
x - 6 = 2 - 6 = -4
