Answer:

X=-6

Explanation:

4(1−x)+3x=−2(x+1)

(4)(1)+(4)(−x)+3x=(−2)(x)+(−2)(1)(Distribute)

4+−4x+3x=−2x+−2

(−4x+3x)+(4)=−2x−2(Combine Like Terms)

−x+4=−2x−2

−x+4=−2x−2

Step 2: Add 2x to both sides.

−x+4+2x=−2x−2+2x

x+4=−2

Step 3: Subtract 4 from both sides.

x+4−4=−2−4

x=−6

Answer:

x=−6
