Question

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

Answer 1

$\text {Hi! Let's Solve this Equation!}$

$\text {The First Step is to Simplify the Equation:}$

$\text {3 becomes 3x. 3*-2=-6 so that becomes -6.}$

$\text {Add: -6+4=-2}$

$\text {Your new Problem should be: 3x+-6+4=2x-1}$

$\text {The Next Step is to Subtract 2x:}$

$\text {3x-2-2x=2x-1-2x}\\\text {x-2=-1}$

$\text {The Final Step is to Add 2:}$

$\text {x-2+2=-1+2}$

$\text {Your Answer should be:}$

$\fbox {x=1}$

$\text {Best of Luck!}$

$\text {-LimitedX}$

Answer 2

Answer:

- 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

3 ( x - 2 ) + 4 = 2x - 1        Equation

Step 2:

3x - 6 + 4 = 2x - 1      Multiply

Step 3:

3x - 2 = 2x - 1     Combine Like Terms

Step 4:

3x = 2x - 1 + 2   Add 2 on both sides

Step 5:

3x = 2x - 1    Combine Like Terms

Step 6:

x = - 1     Subract 2x on both sides

Answer:

x = - 1
