Question

4(2 - x ) + 1 = 2x + 2 - 5 ( 1 - 4 x )

Answer 1

4(2-x)+1=2x+2-5(1-4x)
4×2-4×x+1=2x+2-5×1-(-5)×4x
8-4x+1=2x+2-5+20x
9-4x=22x-3
9+3=-4x-22x
12=-26x => x= -(12/26)=-(6/13)

Answer 2

4 ( 2 - x ) + 1 = 2 x + 2 - 5 ( 1 - 4 x )

8 - 4 x + 1 = 2 x + 2 - 5 + 20 x

- 4 x  + 9 = 22 x - 3

- 4 x - 22 x = - 3 - 9

- 26 x = - 12

x = ( - 12 ) / ( - 26 )

x = 6 / 13
