Answer: x=0
Step-by-step explanation:
x+1=2x+1
combine like terms
3x+1=1
-1 on both sides of 1
3x+ 0
divide 3 on 3 and 0
x=0
[tex]x + 1 = 2x - 1[/tex]
[tex]1 = 2x - 1 - x[/tex]
[tex]1 = x - 1[/tex]
[tex]x - 1 = 1[/tex]
[tex]x = 1 + 1[/tex]
[tex]x = 2[/tex]
Let us check whether or not , we have found out the correct value of x , by placing 2 in the place of x .
So :-
[tex]2 + 1 = 2 \times 2 - 1[/tex]
[tex]3 = 4 - 1[/tex]
[tex]3 = 3[/tex]
Which means , we have found out the correct value of x .
Therefore :-
[tex]2 + 1 = 2 \times 2 - 1 \: ,( \: x = 3 \: )[/tex]
