Answer:
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
5x+2=3x+4(2x−1)
5x+2=3x+(4)(2x)+(4)(−1)(Distribute)
5x+2=3x+8x+−4
5x+2=(3x+8x)+(−4)(Combine Like Terms)
5x+2=11x+−4
5x+2=11x−4
Step 2: Subtract 11x from both sides.
5x+2−11x=11x−4−11x
−6x+2=−4
Step 3: Subtract 2 from both sides.
−6x+2−2=−4−2
−6x=−6
Step 4: Divide both sides by -6.
−6x
−6
=
−6
−6
x=1
