What is - 2 + 4x - 1 = 4 + x - 1

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

-2+4x-1=4+x-1

-2+4x+-1=4+x+-1

(4x) + (-2+-1) = (x) + (4+-1) (Combine Like Terms)

4x+-3=x+3

4x-3=x+3

Step 2: Subtract x from both sides.

4x-3-x=x+3-x

3x-3=3

Step 3: Add 3 to both sides.

3x-3+3=3+3

3x=6

Step 4: Divide both sides by 3.

3x

3

=

6

x=2
