Answer:

x = 16

I dont quite understand the x = 48 situation? But thats wrong if that's your answe

Explanation:

So you have to find out what x is

in order to do that you have to work out the equation and whatever you do to one side you must do to the other side

simplify 1(x+4) = 20

x + 4 = 20

in order to get rid of 4 on one side you have to subtract it on both sides

so x = 16

Answer:

X actually equals 16 becaausw if yiu add 16+4 you get 20 and then you have to multiply 20 by 1 and you get 20 so x=16
