Question

4x -1 = -x+9 i need help its for a testtt

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - 1 = -x + 9

add x to both sides.

4x + x - 1 = 9

add 1 to both sides

4x + x = 9 + 1

5x = 10

x = 2

Answer 2

Answer:

$\boxed {x = 2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for the value of $x$:

$4x - 1 = -x + 9$

-Take $x$ and add it to $4x$:

$4x - 1 + x = -x + x + 9$

$5x - 1 = 9$

-Add $1$ to both sides:

$5x - 1 + 1 = 9 + 1$

$5x = 10$

-Divide both sides by $5$:

$\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{10}{5}$

$\boxed {x = 2}$

Therefore, the value of $x$ is $2$.
