Question

4x +2 -(3 + 3x) = 7 what is the value of x

Answer 1

x= 8

Explanation:

Step 1- Distribute into the parenthesis by 1.

4x+2+3(-1)+3(-1)x= 7

Step 2- Simplify.

4x+2-3-3x= 7

Step 3- Add common variables.

(4x-3x)+(2-3)

1x-1= 7

Step 4- Add 1 to both sides.

1x-1= 7

+1 +1

1x= 8

Step 5- Divide both sides by 1.

1x= 8

1 1

x= 8
