Solve 4(2x+1)=13

$$4 ( 2 x + 1 ) = 13$$

Solve for x

$$x = \frac{9}{8} = 1\frac{1}{8} = 1.125$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Divide both sides by 4.

$$2x+1=\frac{13}{4}$$

Subtract 1 from both sides.

$$2x=\frac{13}{4}-1$$

Convert 1 to fraction \frac{4}{4}.

$$2x=\frac{13}{4}-\frac{4}{4}$$

Since \frac{13}{4} and \frac{4}{4} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$2x=\frac{13-4}{4}$$

Subtract 4 from 13 to get 9.

$$2x=\frac{9}{4}$$

Divide both sides by 2.

$$x=\frac{\frac{9}{4}}{2}$$

Express \frac{\frac{9}{4}}{2} as a single fraction.

$$x=\frac{9}{4\times 2}$$

Multiply 4 and 2 to get 8.

$$x=\frac{9}{8}$$
