Add the numbers
20x6
20x6−2=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
20x6=0+2
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
20x6=2
Divide both sides
2020x6=202
Divide the numbers
x6=202
Cancel out the common factor 2
x6=101
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
