Answer:
ight so distribute the 4 so you get 4x+4 then subtract 4 from 8 which leaves you with 4x=4 divide by 4 and you get 1
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\bf{4(x+1)=8}[/tex]
Divide both sides by 4.
[tex]\bf{x+1=\dfrac{8}{4} }[/tex]
Divide 8 by 4 to get 2.
[tex]\bf{x+1=2}[/tex]
Subtract 1 from both sides.
[tex]\bf{x=2-1 }[/tex]
Subtract 1 from 2 to get 1.
[tex]\bf{x=1 \ \ \to \ \ \ Answer}[/tex]
Let x=1.
[tex]\bf{4\times(1+1)=8 \ \ \to \ \ \ [Add] }[/tex]
[tex]\bf{4\times2=8 \ \ \to \ \ \ [Multiply]}[/tex]
[tex]\bf{8=8 \ \ \to \ \ \ [Equality \ holds] }[/tex]
