Which value for x makes the sentence true? 4x - 1 = 23 x = 6 x = 28 x = 24 x = 4
add 1 to 23 then divide
4x/24=?
4*6=24 24-1=23 x=6
thanks lol
4x - 1 = 23 Since there is the subtraction you have to do the opposite which is addition so iyou have to add by 1 on both sides. 4x - 1 = 23 4x + 1 = + 1 4x _________ = _________ 4x = 24 You have to divde by 4 both sides. 4x = 24 ____________ ___________ 4 4 x divide it by 4 is cancelled and 24 divided by 4 equals 6. Therefore, x=6.
