2 x - 6 = 20, where x is the temperature in degrees Farhenheit 6 hours ago. 2 x = 20 + 6, 2 x = 26, x = 26 : 2, x = 13 degrees F. We can prove it: 13 * 2 - 6 = 26 - 6 = 20 degrees F ( the current temperature ) The temperature 6 hours ago was 13 degrees F.Hope this helps. Let me know if you need additional help!
