Question

Solve the following equation and check the results:
4(x-1)-(2x-5)=4

Answer 1

Answer:

3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

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

4X-4-2X +5=4

4x-2x = 4+4-5

2x = 8-5

x=3/2

Answer 2

distribute:

4(× -1)-(2× -5)=4

4× -4 —(2× — 5)=4

STEPS BY STEP SOLUTION:

1.distribute

2.add the number

3.combine like terms

4.subtract 1 from both side of the equation

5. simplify

6. divide both side of the equation by the same term

answer:

× =3/2
