Answer:
x=-5 or -5
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 4 = 2x + 1
Subtract x from both sides canceling out the x on the left, getting...
-4 = x + 1
Then subtract the 1 from both sides canceling out the 1 on the right, getting...
-5 = x
Subtracting x from 2x gets you 1x which you just write as x because there is only one x. Doing the equation from the other side will still get you the same answer and I will show you.
x - 4 = 2x + 1
-x - 4 = 1
-x = 5
x = -5
Hope this helps!

Answer:
144 pages
Step-by-step explanation:
3 hours * 60 = 180 minutes
40 pages / 50 minutes = x pages / 180 minutes
40/50 = x/180
cross multiply
50x = 40 * 180
50x = 7200
x = 7200 ÷ 50
x = 144
