Solve x+1/3+1=3(x-4)

$$\frac { x + 1 } { 3 } + 1 = 3 ( x - 4 )$$

Solve for x

$$x=5$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides of the equation by 3.

$$x+1+3=9\left(x-4\right)$$

Add 1 and 3 to get 4.

$$x+4=9\left(x-4\right)$$

Use the distributive property to multiply 9 by x-4.

$$x+4=9x-36$$

Subtract 9x from both sides.

$$x+4-9x=-36$$

Combine x and -9x to get -8x.

$$-8x+4=-36$$

Subtract 4 from both sides.

$$-8x=-36-4$$

Subtract 4 from -36 to get -40.

$$-8x=-40$$

Divide both sides by -8.

$$x=\frac{-40}{-8}$$

Divide -40 by -8 to get 5.

$$x=5$$
