Steps:


4x+1= 8x-15

=>subtract 4 on both sides with 8x


1=4x-15

=>now do add 15 both sides


16=4x

=>Now divide 4x both sides


(16)/(4) =(4x)/(4)


4=x

So 4 is the answer

Answer:

x=4

Explanation:

Given M is the midpoint

We know that midpoint of a line divides the line into two equal parts

Therefore on equating we get


4x + 1 = 8x - 15


1 + 15 = 8x - 4x


16 = 4x


x = 4
