Combine like terms:
2x+50=6
Subtract 50 from both sides;
2x=-44
Divide 2 from both sides:
x=-22
Check:
4(-22)+25-2(-22)+25=6
-48+25+44+25=6
-23+29=6
6=6

4x+25-2x+25=6?
first, group like terms together
4x-2x+25+25 = 6
sifplify
2x + 50 = 6
subtract 50 from both sides
2x + 50 - 50 = 6 -50
simplify
2x = -44
divide by 2
x = -22

Solve for X.
First combine the like terms (4X-2X) and (25+25) and we get:
2X+50=6 Now subtract 50 from both sides and we get:
2X=-44 Now divide both sides by 2
X=-22
Not so bad, eh?

4x+25-2x+25=6
4x+25-2x+25-50=6-50
4x-2x=-44
2x/2=-44/2
x=-22
