We are given the following:


3(x+1)+4(x+1)=49

Simplify the left side of the equation by using the distributive property. After you distribute, you end up with:


3x+3+4x+4=49

Combine like terms:


7x + 7 = 49

Subtract 7 from both sides to cancel the +7 on the left. When you do that, you end up with:


7x = 42

Divide both sides by 7 to isolate x.


(7x)/(7) =(42)/(7)

Your final answer should be:


x=6
