Add 4x to both sides and get
13 = 1 + 3x
12 = 3x [from subtracted 1 from both sides]
x = 4 [from dividing 3 from both sides]
therefore your answer would be x = 4
Before I can help, I need the optional answers.
Answer:
0, 2 . . . . . (any pair of consecutive even integers)
Step-by-step explanation:
You want a pair of consecutive even integers such that twice the lesser is 4 less than two times the greater.
<h3>Setup</h3>
Let x represent the lesser of the two even integers. Then the greater is (x+2) and the given relation is ...
2x = 2(x+2) -4
<h3>Solution</h3>
Simplifying gives ...
2x = 2x +4 -4
2x = 2x . . . . . . . true for any even integer x
Any pair of consecutive even integers will satisfy the relation.
one such pair is 0, 2
<em>check</em>: 2(2) -4 = 2(0)
