-x -x
4 = 1x + 1
-1 -1
3 = 1x
-- --
1 1
3 = x
Check:
3 + 4 = 2(3) + 1
7 = 6 + 1
7 = 7
Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 4 = 2x + 1
subtract 1 from both sides
4 = 1x + 1
you wanna subtract 1 from both sides
3 = 1x
now you wanna divide 1 from both sides to get x by itself
3 = x
since you cannot write a equation like that you wanna swap it
x=3
hope that helped :))
