Question

What is the solution to the equation 4 –2x ≈ 3

Answer 1

4 –2x ≈ 3
Subtract 4 from both sides

Answer 2

Then divide by -2

Answer 3

Solve for x. So you need to get x completely alone one one side and everything else on the other side.
So first here you would do any addition or subtraction. Whatever is on the same side as the x do the reverse to both sides.
Then do the same thing with any addition or multiplication.
Then you would do any exponents if there were any.

Answer 4

2x is approximately equal to one (add 2x to both sides then subtract 3 from both sides)
x is approximately equal to 1/2 (divide both sides by 2)
