Question 4 Multiple Choice Worth 1 points) (01.02 MC) Solve for : 2 x - (x - 2) = 4x

Answer 1

Answer:

$\small \sf \frac{2}{3} = x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x;

2x - ( x - 2 ) = 4x

distribute minus sign through parantheses

• 2x - x + 2 = 4x

combine like terms

• x + 2 = 4x

subtract x from both side

• x - x + 2 = 4x - x
• 2 = 3 x

Divide each side by 3

$\small \sf \frac{2}{3} = \frac{3x}{3}$

$\small \sf \frac{2}{3} = x\:$
