-2x = -1
x = 1/2
Any equation that returns x=1/2 is a solution to this problem. For example, x= (3•4)/6 can be simplified so that x=1/2

Hey there!

  • [tex]\bold{Simplify}[/tex] both sides of your equation
  • [tex]\bold{-2x+5=4}[/tex]
  • [tex]\bold{Subtract}[/tex]  by the number [tex]\bold{5}[/tex]
  • [tex]\bold{Like\downarrow}[/tex]
  • [tex]\bold{-2x+5-5=4-5}[/tex]
  • [tex]\bold{Cancel\rightarrow5-5}[/tex] because it equals [tex]\bold{Keep\rightarrow4-5}[/tex]   because it helps us solve for our answer
  • [tex]\bold{4-5=-1}[/tex]
  • [tex]\bold{We\ get:-2x=-1}[/tex]
  • [tex]\bold{Divide}[/tex] by the [tex]\bold{-2}[/tex] on each of your sides
  • [tex]\bold{Like\downarrow}[/tex]
  • [tex]\bold{\frac{-2x}{-2}=\frac{-1}{-2}}[/tex]
  • [tex]\bold{Cancel\rightarrow\frac{-2x}{-2}}[/tex] because it gives us the result of [tex]\bold{Keep\rightarrow\frac{-1}{-2}}[/tex] because it gives us the answer
  • [tex]\boxed{\boxed{\bold{Answer:x=\frac{1}{2}}}}\checkmark[/tex]

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
