Question

3=1+x/2how to solve this math problem

Answer 1

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

3 = 1 + x/2

collect like terms:

we need to make the variable stane alone. We do this by removing any number not attached to the variable x.

The number is +1, so we will subtract 1 from both sides of the equation

3 - 1 = 1 - 1 + x/2

2 = 0 + x/2

2 = x/2

`\begin{gathered} \frac{2\text{ }}{1}\text{=}(x)/(2) \\ we\text{ cross multiply:} \\ x(1)\text{ = 2(2)} \\ x\text{ = 4} \end{gathered}`

The value of x = 4
