Question

What's the solution for x? 4+x+2-2x=5

Answer 1

4 + x + 2 - 2x = 5

First, simplify to 4 - x + 2.
$4 - x + 2 = 5$
Second, keep the '- x' and add 4 + 2.
$6 - x = 5$
Third, subtract '6' from both sides.
$-x = 5 - 6$
Fourth, subtract 5 - 6.
$-x = -1$
Fifth, multiply both sides by -1.
$x = 1$

Answer: x = 1
