Question

Helppp pleaseee asap :((((((

Answer 1

We are given the following:

$3(x+1)+4(x+1)=49$

Simplify the left side of the equation by using the distributive property. After you distribute, you end up with:

$3x+3+4x+4=49$

Combine like terms:

$7x + 7 = 49$

Subtract 7 from both sides to cancel the +7 on the left. When you do that, you end up with:

$7x = 42$

Divide both sides by 7 to isolate x.

$\frac{7x}{7} =\frac{42}{7}$

Your final answer should be:

$x=6$
