Question

4x + 1 -5x =2x +4(x-5)

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer for x first distribute the 4 in the parenthesis

4x + 1 - 5x = 2x +4x - 20

Next add or subtract the x's

-x + 1 = 6x - 20

Now subtract 6x and 1 on both sides to get x on the left and the rest on the right

-7x = -21

Lastly, divide -7 on both sides

x = 3
