Solve the equation, 4 - (x + 1) = 6.

X=-3

Step-by-step explanation

First of all, remove the parenthesis by distributing the value of the negative sign so it would be 4-x-1=6, next find the like terms which is 4-1 is 3. so 3-x=6.

transpose the 3 to the other side so it would be - x=6-3

-x=3 divide both sides by - 1. X=-3
