To solve for \( x \) in the equation \( 4x - 6 = 8 \):
1. First, add 6 to both sides:
\[
4x - 6 + 6 = 8 + 6
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
4x = 14
\]
2. Next, divide both sides by 4:
\[
x = \frac{14}{4} = \frac{7}{2} = 3.5
\]
So, the solution is:
\[
\boxed{3.5}
\]
Regarding the second set of options for manipulation of an equation, it seems they pertain to a different equation, as nothing has been presented yet. Would you like to clarify that?
