Question

3 less than 4 times a number is the same as 2 times a number increased by 13

Answer 1

4x-3=2x+13=8

Explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x−3=2x+13

Step 1: Subtract 2x from both sides.

4x−3−2x=2x+13−2x

2x−3=13

Step 2: Add 3 to both sides.

2x−3+3=13+3

2x=16

Step 3: Divide both sides by 2.

2x/2=16/2

x=8
