Question

Solve for x.

4−(2x+4)=5

x=−10

x=−52

x=6

x=3/2

Answer 1

Solve fr x
4 - (2x+4) = 5
let's focus on the parentheses 1st
simplify the -(2x+4) using sidtrubtive property
- is same as -1 tho
so
we will get -2x -4 after simplifying the -(2x + 4)
so that means the new expression we have is
4 -2x - 4 = 5
combine alike terms
4 - 4 is zero and so we have now
-2x = 5

divide both sides by -2
x = 5/-2
