Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify both sides of the equation.
[tex]x(2)+4x-9=x+1\\2x+4x+-9=x+1\\(2x+4x)+(-9)=x+1[/tex] (combine like terms)
[tex]6x+-9=x+1\\6x-9=x+1\\[/tex]
subtract x from both sides.
[tex]6x-9-x=x+1-x\\5x-9=1[/tex]
add 9 to both sides.
[tex]5x-9+9=1+9\\5x=10[/tex]
divide both sides by 5
[tex]\frac{5x}{5} =\frac{10}{5} \\x=2[/tex]
