$x = 1$ $x = 1$ .

We start with:
$2 x + 4 = 6$ $2x + 4 = 6$ . We have to leave $x$ $x$ alone. So:

We pass the $4$ $4$ form the left, where it is adding ( $+ 4$ $+ 4$ ) to the right, where it will be doing the opposite, so, subtracting:
$2 x = 6 - 4$ $2x = 6 - 4$ ,
$2 x = 2$ $2x = 2$ .
Now, we pass the $2$ $2$ from the left, where it is multiplying ( $2 x$ $2x$ is the same as $2 \cdot x$ $2*x$ ) to the right, were it will do the opposite, dividing:
$x = \frac{2}{2}$ $x = 2/2$ ,
$x = 1$ $x = 1$ .

Hope it Helps! :D .
