Question

The value of 'x'in the equation 3x-(x-4)=3x+1is __​

Answer 1

Answer:

3x - x + 4 = 3x + 1

x = 4 - 1 = 3.

Answer 2

Answer:

The value of x is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is-

3x - (x - 4) = 3x + 1

3x - x + 4 = 3x + 1

2x + 4 = 3x + 1

2x - 3x = 1 - 4

-x = -3

x = 3

Verification of answer-

3x - (x - 4) = 3x + 1

L.H.S-

= 3x - (x - 4)

Put x = 3

= 3(3) - (3 - 4)

= 9 -(-1)

= 9 + 1

= 10

L.H.S = 10

R.H.S-

= 3x + 1

Put x = 3

= 3(3) + 1

= 9 + 1

= 10

R.H.S. = 10

∵ L.H.S = R.H.S

Hence, the value of x is 3.
