\bold{Answer}


\boxed{\bold{X \ = \ -6}}


\bold{Explanation}


  • \bold{Solve: \ \left(-4\right)+3x-1=2x+1+2x}


\bold{-----------------------}


  • \bold{Remove \ Parenthesis: \ (a) \ = \ a}


\bold{-4+3x-1=2x+1+2x}


  • \bold{Group \ Like \ Terms}


\bold{3x-4-1=2x+1+2x}


  • \bold{Add \ Similar \ Elements: \ 2x \ + \ 2x \ = \ 4x}


\bold{3x-4-1=2x+1+2x}


  • \bold{Add \ 5 \ To \ Both \ Sides}


\bold{3x-4-1=2x+1+2x}


  • \bold{Simplify}


\bold{3x=4x+6}


  • \bold{Subtract \ 4x \ From \ Both \ Sides}


\bold{3x-4x=4x+6-4x}


  • \bold{Simplify}


\bold{-x=6}


  • \bold{Divide \ Both \ Sides \ By \ -1}


\bold{(-x)/(-1)=(6)/(-1)}


  • \bold{Simplify}


\bold{x=-6}


\boxed{\bold{Eclipsed}}
