Question

solve the following equation and verify the solution​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We start with $\frac{X+1}{4} + 0.25 = x$

Since 0.25 = 1/4, we can rewrite this expression as:

$\frac{x+1}{4} + \frac{1}{4} = x$

Now, represent x as 4x / 4, which is equal to x

$\frac{x+1}{4} + \frac{1}{4} = \frac{4x}{4}$

Since all the terms have a 4 as a denominator, multiply all sides by 4 to get:

$x + 2 = 4x$

Now, subtract x from both sides to isolate the variable:

4x - x = 2

3x = 2

Finally, divide both sides by 3 to get:

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