Answer 1

∑ Hey, ramosblan81 ⊃

Answer:

x = -3

Explanation:

⇒ Given:

4x + 1 = 2x -5

║ Solve ║:

4x + 1 = 2x -5

Subtracting 1 from both sides:

4x + 1 = 2x -5

4x + 1 - 1 = 2x -5 -1

4x = 2x - 6

Now subtracting 2x from both sides:

4x - 2x = 2x - 6 - 2x

2x = -6

Then divide both sides by 2

2x/2 = -6/2

x = -3

Thus, the answer is x = -3.

Answer 2

• 
  `\boxed{\sf{x=-3}}`

Explanation:

Given:

• Find the term of x.

Solutions:

• 4x+1=2x-5

First, you subtract by 1 from both sides.

4x+1-1=2x-5-1

Solve.

4x=2x-6

Subtract by 2x from both sides.

4x-2x=2x-6-2x

Solve.

2x=-6

Divide by 2 from both sides.

2x/2=-6/2

Solve.

Divide these numbers from left to right.

-6/2=-3

`\longrightarrow \boxed{\sf{x=-3}}`

Therefore, the final answer is x=-3.
