Answer: X=11

Explanation:

Add 7 to both sides of the equation 4x-7=2x+15

4x-7+7=2x+15+7

Simplify

Add the numbers :4x -7 + 7 = 2 x + 15 + 7

Add the numbers:4 x = 2x + 15+7

down

4x=2x+22

Subtract

2 2 x 2 x from both sides of the equation

4 x = 2x +22 4x - 2x = 2x +22- 2x

Simplify

2x = 2x +22-2x

Divide both sides of the equation by the same term

2x = 22 2x/ = 22/2 x =22/2x =22/2 x=11
