Hello!

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive property: →
a(b+c)=ab+ac

First do expand.


4(x+1)=4x+4

Then you subtract by 4 from both sides of an equation.


4x+4-4=2x+4-4

Simplify by equation.


4x=2x

Next, subtract by 2x from both sides of an equation.


4x-2x=2x-2x

Simplify.


2x=0

You can also divide by 2 from both sides of an equation.


(2x)/(2)= (0)/(2)

Finally, simplify by equation and dividing into the groups.


0/2=0

Answer: →
\boxed{x=0}

Hope this helps!
