The terms 6x and -2x are like terms (both contain x), so I can combine them:
6x - 2x = (6-2)x = 4x
The term 4 is a constant and doesn't combine with any other term.
So the simplified expression is 4x + 4.
Wait, I need to be careful here. The inst... | To simplify the expression 6x - 2x + 4, I'll combine like terms.
The like terms are 6x and -2x (both contain x):
6x - 2x = 8x
The constant 4 remains as is.
Therefore, the simplified expression is 8x + 4. | algebra (English) |
Solve: 2x + 3 = 11 | The equation is 2x + 3 = 11.
To solve for x, I need to isolate x on one side of the equation.
Step 1: Subtract 3 from both sides.
2x + 3 - 3 = 11 - 3
2x = 7
Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.
2x / 2 = 7 / 2
x = 3.5
Let me verify: 2(3.5) + 3 = 7 + 3 = 11. ✓
The answer is x = 3.5. | To solve the equation **2x + 3 = 11**, follow these steps:
1. **Subtract 3 from both sides** to isolate the term with x:
2x + 3 - 3 = 11 - 3
2x = 7
2. **Divide both sides by 2** to solve for x:
2x / 2 = 7 / 2
x = 3.5
**Verification:** 2(3.5) + 3 = 7 + 3 = 11 ✓
The solution is **x = 3.5**. | The equation is 2x + 3 = 11.
To solve for x, I need to isolate x on one side of the equation.
Step 1: Subtract 3 from both sides.
2x + 3 - 3 = 11 - 3
2x = 8
Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.
2x / 2 = 8 / 2
x = 4
Let me verify: 2(4) + 3 = 8 + 3 = 11. ✓
The answer is x = 4. | To solve the equation **2x + 3 = 11**, follow these steps:
1. **Subtract 3 from both sides** to isolate the term with x:
2x + 3 - 3 = 11 - 3
2x = 8
2. **Divide both sides by 2** to solve for x:
2x / 2 = 8 / 2
x = 4
**Verification:** 2(4) + 3 = 8 + 3 = 11 ✓
The solution is **x = 4**. | algebra (English) |
If 4x = 28, what is x? | The question "If 4x = 28, what is x?" is a basic algebra question. It can be solved directly by isolating x.
