Solve for x. 2x + 1 = 7 O X= 4 O x = 3 O X = 12 O X = 16

Sagot :

To answer this question, we need to isolate x. For this, we can proceed as follows:

1. Subtract 1 from both sides of the equation:

[tex]2x+1-1=7-1\Rightarrow2x=6[/tex]

2. Divide by two to both sides of the equation:

[tex]\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{6}{2}\Rightarrow x=3[/tex]

Therefore, the value for x = 3. We can check this result, if we substitute this value in the original euq
