Question

When 4x + 4x + 1 = 33 is solved, the result is:

Answer 1

x=4

Explanation:

4x+4x+1=33

Combine like (similar) terms:

8x+1=33

Rearrange terms to solve for x:

8x=33-1

8x=32

`(8x)/(8) =(32)/(8)`

x=4

Therefore, x=4.

Answer 2

x = 4

Explanation:

1. 8x+1 = 33 and the 4x together

2. 8x = 32 subtract 1 from each side

3. x = 4 Divide both sides by 8
