Question

Review the following equation. Redo the work for the equation. What is the

value of x?
2(x + 1) = x - 4(x-2)
2x 2 = x-4(x-2)
2x2 = x - 4x - 8
2x - 2 =-3x - 8
-6 = -5x
-6/5 = x

What is the answer?:
x= 6/5
x= 5/7
x= 7/5
x= -3/5

Answer 1

Answer:
x = 6/5

Step by step explanation:

2x + 2 = x - 4x + 8

2x + 2 = -3x + 8

2x + 3x = 8 - 2

5x/5 = 6/5

x = 6/5
