Question

4x - 1 2. = x + 7 Can someone help please?

Answer 1

Answer:

19/3 = $6\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$4x -12= x+7\\Collect-Like-Terms\\4x-x =7+12\\3x=19\\Divide -Both-Sides-Of-The-Equation-By ; 3\\\frac{3x}{3} =\frac{19}{3} \\\\x = \frac{19}{3}\\ \\x = 6.3$

Answer 2

Answer:

6$\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-12 = x+7

4x-12+12 = x+7+12

4x = x+19

4x-x = x+19-x

3x=19

x = 6$\frac{1}{3}$

And if we substitute the value of x into the equation 4x-12 = x+7,

we will get 13$\frac{1}{3}$ = 13$\frac{1}{3}$ in the end.

Hope this helps :)
