Solution

Sure, let's solve the equation step by step:

  1. Distribute the -2 in the first term on the left side of the equation: -2*(-x) + -2*1 + 2x - 4 = 34. This simplifies to 2x - 2 + 2x - 4 = 34.

  2. Combine like terms on the left side of the equation: 2x + 2x - 2 - 4 = 34. This simplifies to 4x - 6 = 34.

  3. Add 6 to both sides of the equation to isolate the term with x on one side: 4x - 6 + 6 = 34 + 6. This simplifies to 4x = 40.

  4. Divide both sides of the equation by 4 to solve for x: 4x / 4 = 40 / 4. This simplifies to x = 10.

So, the solution to the equation -2(-x+1)+2x-4=34 is x = 10.
