Question

2x=-4(1/4-3/4 x)+4
solve for x

Answer 1

x=-3

Explanation:

isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Multiply part of the right side by - 4

2x = -4*1/4 + 4* 3x/4 + 4 Combine

2x = - 1 + 3x + 4 Combine again

2x = 3 + 3x Subtract 3x both sides

2x - 3x = 3 Combine

-x = 3 Multiply by -1.

-1 * -x = - 1 * 3

x = - 3
