      - x = x+6
      - x - x = 6
      - 2x = 6
      - x = 6/2
      X = - 3

        -x=x+6
        =-x-x=+6
        =-2x=+6
        =-x=+6/-2
        =-x=-3

        And then at the end do the verification:
        Intial we had -x = x + 6
        Majority here said x = -3, therefore the verification for that answer goes like this:
        -(-3) = (-3) + 6 =>
        3 = -3 + 6
        3 = 6 - 3
        3 = 3 ==> correct answer. The above moron said x = 3. Lets do the verification his answer
        -(3) = (3) + 6 =>
        -3 = 9 => (by adding 3 on both sides)
        -3 + 3 = 9 + 3 =>
        0 = 12 which proves his answer is wrong

        This is an example of why you shouldn't use an internet site to do your homework.
