Answer:

1. A variable is a placeholder for a number that has not been identified

2. the x stands for the missing variable that you need to solve for

3. 6x-24

factor out 6 from the expression

6(x-4)

4. to check, use distributive property:

6 times x= 6x

6 times -4= -24

combine the equation

6x-24

Step-by-step explanation:

hopefully that makes sense!!!

Answer/ Explanation in detail:

A variable in an equation is a symbol that serves as a placeholder for varying expressions or quantities and is often used to represent an arbitrary part of a constant. Like x & y a variable

The x in the equation 6x = 24 stands for a variable.

You solve x in question 2, 6x = 24

6x = 24

Step 1: Divide both sides by 6

6x/6 = 24/6

x=4

To check if the answer is right you substitute 4 for the x.

6x=24

6(4)= 24

24=24

Both sides are equal so the answer, x=4, is correct
