Question

4x+6=4+(2x+1) is the answer 6=6

Answer 1

Answer: x = -1/2 or -0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 6 = 4 + (2x + 1)

4x + 6 = 5 + 2x

subtract 5 from both sides

4x + 1 = 2x

subtract 4x

1 = -2x

divide by -2

1/-2 = x

simplifies to x= -1/2

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4x+6=4+(2x+1)

Opening bracket

4x + 6 = 4 + 2x + 1

Collecting like terms

4x - 2x = 4 + 1 - 6

2x = -1

x = -1/2
