Answer:

x + 4 = 2

Explanation:

given the equation

- 3x + 1 = 7 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

- 3x = 6 ( divide both sides by - 3 )

x = - 2

Then

x + 4 = - 2 + 4 = 2

================

First, isolate x in the equation.

We can do this by subtracting 1 from both sides of the equation:

  • -3x = 6

Next, divide both sides by -3 to solve for x:

  • x = -2

Finally, substitute the value of x into x + 4:

  • -2 + 4 = 2

Therefore, the value of x+4 is 2.
