fast quetion will give medal what is 4x+x? is the answer written as 5x ? @texaschic101

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes 4x + x = 5x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The coefficient of x is understood to be 1

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

yes....because x is the same as 1x.

OpenStudy (<3pandas18):

oh ok so i have another question if you guys could help out plse

OpenStudy (<3pandas18):

how do i solve this: 2(5-3x) < x-4(3-x) i need to find the inequality. I already know the answer is x<2 but i want to see the work or step by step solution

Nnesha (nnesha):

how did you get the answer ??D o.o

OpenStudy (<3pandas18):

i found the answer on another web site but it did not help cuz i dont just dont want the answer i want to learn how to solve it.

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

2(5 - 3x) < x - 4(3 - x) --- distribute through the parenthesis 10 - 6x < x -12 + 4x --- simplify 10 - 6x < 5x - 12 -- add 6x to both sides 10 - 6x + 6x < 5x + 6x - 12 --- simplify 10 < 11x - 12 --- add 12 to each side 10 + 12 < 11x - 12 + 12 -- simplify 22 < 11x -- now divide both sides by 11 22/11 < (11/11)x 2 < x or x > 2
