Answer:

a) add x , subtract 1 and divide by 4

The solution of given equation
x = (3)/(4)

Explanation:

Given equation 1+3 x = -x +4

Add 'x' on both sides , we get

1 + 3 x + x = - x + x +4

1 + 4 x = 4

Subtract '1' on both sides , we get

1+4 x -1 = 4 -1

4 x = 3

Dividing '4' on both sides, we get


(4x)/(4) = (3)/(4)


x = (3)/(4)

Final answer:-

The solution of given equation
x = (3)/(4)
