Answer:


(2)/(3)

Explanation:

Okay, So for this equation, you would have to get a variable to the other side.

1x+2=4x+0

Since 4x is larger than 1x, you wpuld subtract 1x on both sides.

1x-1x+2=4x-1x+0

2=3x+0

So now, think what is the only thing I can do right now to change this equation. You would see the 0 and 2.

Subtract 0 on both sides:

2-0=3x+0-0

2=3x

Now divide:


(2)/(3)=(3x)/(3)

x=
(2)/(3)
