Answer:


\huge\boxed{\sf{x=6}}

Explanation:

Hi there!

Let's solve this two-step equation.

The first step is to move all the numbers to the right, using the opposite operation:


\bold{4x-1=23}


\bold{4x=23+1}


\bold{4x=24}

Now, divide both sides by 4 to isolate x:


\bold{4x:4=24:4}


\bold{x=6}

Hope it helps!

  • \large \sf \: 4x - 1 = 23


  • \large \sf \: 4x = 23 + 1


  • \large \sf \: 4x = 24


  • \large \sf \: x = \cancel (24)/(4)


  • \large \sf \bold x = 6

Hope It's Helps
