Combining like terms 2 + 3x - X=4x

Mathematics

Answer:

Hi there!

Your answer is:

x= 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Goal- get all X's on one side, and all whole numbers on the other

2+3x -x = 4x

First, combine like terms on each side of the equal sign

2+ 2x = 4x

Next, think about the additive inverse property. What, added to 2x, equals 0? 2x + (-2x) =0! So, we <u>subtract</u> 2x from both sides!

2= 4x-2x

Simplify

2= 2x

Divide both sides by the coefficient of x (in this case, 2)

2/2 = x

2/2 is equal to 1

1= x

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Combining the x terms, we get  

2 + 2x = 4x, or 2 = 2x.

Then, after we divide both sides by 2 to isolate x, we get x = 1

X-2=3(x-4) what is the solution
Vladimir [108]
First distribute 3 to (x-4). that gives you 3x-12. Now your equation is x-2=3x-12. Now you subtract x from 3x. now you're equation is -2=2x-12. then add 12 to the left. You're final answer is 10.

Virty [35]

Answer:

  \dfrac{-4x+7}{2(x-2)}

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the terms of numerator and denominator using a common denominator.

  \dfrac{\dfrac{3}{x-1}-4}{2-\dfrac{2}{x-1}}=\dfrac{\left(\dfrac{3-4(x-1)}{x-1}\right)}{\left(\dfrac{2(x-1)-2}{x-1}\right)}}=\boxed{\dfrac{-4x+7}{2(x-2)}}
