4+x+2–2x= 5
What is the value of x for this equation

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

4+x+2-2x=5

Combine like terms

6-x=5

Subtract 6 on both sides to cancel out

-x=-1

There is still a number connected to the variable x so divide by -1 on each side to cancel out the -1 connected to the x

-x/-1=-1/-1

x=1
