Question

4x-1=2x+11 what is the value of x and what are the steps?

Answer 1

Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-1=2x+11

4x-2x-1=11

2x-1=11

2x=11+1

2x=12

x=12/2

x=6

Answer 2

X = 6

You need to isolate the variable or get x on one side of the = sign and a number on the other side.

1. Do the inverse operation and add one to each side of the equation. -1+1= 0 and 11+1=12

2. Subtract 2x from both sides. 2x-2x=0 and 4x-2x=2x.

So we are left with 2x=12 or 2 times some number “x” is equal to twelve.

3. Next we divide both sides by 2
2/2=1 and 12/2=6

So x=6
