4(x+1)=2x+4
what is the value of x?
​

x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x+1)=2x+4

Distribute

4x+4 = 2x+4

Subtract 4 from each side

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

4x= 2x

Subtract 2x from each side

4x-2x = 2x-2x

2x=0

Divide by 2

x =0

x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

4(x + 1) = 2x + 4

Step 2: Solve for x

step-by-step explanation:

we are given

since, we have to isolate x on anyone side

so, we can move all x terms on one side

subtract both sides by 2x

add both sides by 9

divide both sides by 4

we get

let y equal to

the total fare and x is the mile of taxi ride. so the equation is

y = 0.55x + 1.75

since susie has

$10 to spend for a taxi cab, so he can have

10 = 0.55x +

1.75

x = 15 miles of

taxi ride

so the system of

inequality is

10 < 0.55x +

1.75

x > 2
