To solve the equation (4x – 13 = 2x + 9), follow these steps:
1. Isolate the variable terms on one side. Start by subtracting (2x) from both sides:
[
4x – 2x – 13 = 9
]
This simplifies to:
[
2x – 13 = 9
]
2. Add 13 to both sides to isolate the term with (x):
[
2x – 13 + 13 = 9 + 13
]
Which simplifies to:
[
2x = 22
]
3. Divide by 2 to solve for (x):
[
x = frac{22}{2} = 11
]
So, the correct answer is (x = 11). Great job working through the steps! If you would like more detail on any part, let me know!
