When you solve an equation, you must
do the same thing to both sides of the
equal sign.
4x = 24
Enter the number that belongs in the green box.
4x - 24

x is equal to 6

Step-by-step explanation:

4x=24

divide both sides by 4

4 eliminates 4 leaving x behind

4 divides 24 making x =6

option 3 . (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

step-by-step explanation:

option 1 :

(4x + 3) + (-9x + 4)

or 4x+3 -9x + 4

or -5x + 7

option 2

(x - 2) - (6x - 9)

or x-2-6x + 9

or -5x + 7

option 3

(5x+ + 6)

or 5x + 1 + 10x -6

or 15x -5

option 4

-4x+2x+7-3x

-7x + 2x + 7

-5x + 7

hence only option 3 did   not satisfy the given simplify expression.
