Help with the following:a. 3x+7=-x-1b. 1-2x+5=4x-3c. 4x-2+x=-2+2xd. 3x-4+1=2x-5+5xsolve for x(please show work)

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer and step-by-step explanation:a. 3x+7=-x-1Bring x into 1 side and the other number into another side, we got:3x + x = -1 - 74x = -8Divide both side by 4:4x / 4 = -8/4x = -2b. 1-2x+5=4x-31 + 5 + 3 = 4x + 2x9 = 6xDivide both side by 6:x = 9/6 = 3/2 or 1.5c. 4x-2+x=-2+2x4x + x - 2x = -2 + 23x = 0x = 0d. 3x-4+1=2x-5+5x3x - 2x - 5x = -5 + 4 - 1-10x = -2x = -2/-10x = 2/10 = 1/5 or 0.2 Hope this helped :3
