Question

Write the value of x in 1 - 4x = -15​

Answer 1

Answer:

$1 - 4x = - 15 \\ - 4x = - 15 - 1 \\ - 4x = - 16 \\ x = - 16 \div - 4 \\ x = 4$

Answer 2

Answer:

Hence, the value of x is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

We have to find the value of x,

The given equation,

$1 - 4x = -15$

Now, rearranging the term we get

=> $-4x+1 = -15$

Subtract $1$ from both sides,

=> $-4x+1 -1= -15-1$

Simplifying it further, we get

=> $-4x = -16$

Divide both sides by $-4$,

=> $x= 4$

So, the required solution is 4.
