Select steps that could be used to solve the equation 1 + 3x = -x + 4.

add x, subtract 4, divide by 4
subtract 1, add x, divide by 4
subtract 3x, subtract 4, divide by -4
add x, subtract 1, divide by 4
subtract 3x, subtract 4, divide by 4

Respuesta :

For this case we have the following equation:

[tex]1 + 3x = -x + 4[/tex]

We must solve the equation by following the steps below:

We subtract 1 from both sides of the equation:

[tex]3x = -x + 4-1[/tex]

On the right side of the equation we have that different signs are subtracted and the sign of the major is placed:

[tex]3x = -x + 3[/tex]

We add x to both sides of the equation:

[tex]3x + x = 3\\4x = 3[/tex]

We divide between 4 on both sides of the equation:

[tex]x = \frac {3} {4}[/tex]

Thus, the correct option is option B

Answer:

[tex]x = \frac {3} {4}[/tex]
