1 answer

To solve for x, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation.

x + 1 = 2x + 3

First, let's subtract x from both sides of the equation to get all the x terms on one side:

1 = x + 3

Next, let's subtract 3 from both sides:

-2 = x

Therefore, the value of x is -2.

The correct answer choice is C. -3/4
