Answer 1

To solve the equation \(2x - 1 = 4x + 3\), we can follow these steps:

1. Start by moving all terms involving \(x\) to one side and constant terms to the other side.

   \[ 2x - 4x = 3 + 1 \]

2. This simplifies to:

   \[ -2x = 4 \]

3. Now, divide both sides by -2:

   \[ x = -2 \]

Thus, the solution to the equation \(2x - 1 = 4x + 3\) is \(-2\).

The correct response from the provided options is:

-2
