Question

5x+4=2(x+2)
please help me i tried it and i got it wrong I got 2/5

Answer 1

Answer: x= 0

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 4 = 2(x + 2)       First distribute on the right side  of the equation

5x + 4 = 2x + 4         Subtract 2x from both sides

-2x          -2x

     3x + 4  =  4        Subtract 4 from both sides

          -4         -4

    3x = 0      Divide both side by 3

     x = 0
