Answer:
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
our goal is to isolate the variable (x) by itself on one side; the other side will be a numeric value.
the equation: x+5=4x+2
first, subtract x from both sides to put the x value on one side
5=3x+2
now, subtract 2 from both sides to put the number value on one side
3=3x
now divide by 3 on both sides to get x by itself
1=x
hope this helps!
