Wat is the value of x in the equation
5x + 2(x + 1) = 4

x =

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 2(x + 1) = 4

5x + 2x + 2 = 4 (here we got rid of the parenthesis)

7x + 2 = 4 (here we summed both of our x values)

7x = 4 - 2 (here we took #2 to the other side of the equation)

7x = 2 (we subtracted 4 - 2)

x = 2 / 7

x =

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
