Question
I can't figure out this problem...
2x-2-(x-1) = 4-1+x-(-3x) solve for x
Will you also show your work and check step
Thanks,

2x-2-(x-1) = 4-1+x-(-3x)
2x-2-x+1 = 4-1+x+3x
x-1 = 3+4x
-1-3 = 4x-x
-4 = 3x
x = -4/3
2(-4/3) - 2 - (-4/3 - 1) = 4 - 1 + (-4/3) - (-3 * -4/3)
-8/3 - 2 - (-7/3) = 3 - 4/3 - 4
-8/3 - 2 + 7/3 = -1 - 4/3
-1/3 - 2 = -7/3
-7/3 = -7/3
2x-2-x+1 = 4-1+x+3x
x-1 = 3+4x
-1-3 = 4x-x
-4 = 3x
x = -4/3
2(-4/3) - 2 - (-4/3 - 1) = 4 - 1 + (-4/3) - (-3 * -4/3)
-8/3 - 2 - (-7/3) = 3 - 4/3 - 4
-8/3 - 2 + 7/3 = -1 - 4/3
-1/3 - 2 = -7/3
-7/3 = -7/3
