Question

5 (2x+1) +4 (x+1)=12(x+2)​

Answer 1

Answer:

x=–/-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

5(2)(1)+4(x+1)=x+2

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5(2)(1)+4(x+1)=x+2

5(2)(1)+(4)(x)+(4)(1)=x+2(Distribute)

10+4x+4=x+2

(4x)+(10+4)=x+2(Combine Like Terms)

4x+14=x+2

4x+14=x+2

Step 2: Subtract x from both sides.

4x+14−x=x+2−x

3x+14=2

Step 3: Subtract 14 from both sides.

3x+14−14=2−14

3x=−12

Step 4: Divide both sides by 3.

3x
