Answer :

Simplifying the expression gives 0 = 6

What are algebraic expressions?

An algebraic expression is defined as an expression made up of variables and constants, with algebraic operations like addition, subtraction, and division.

Given the expression;

1/2 (x + 4) = 1/2x + 1

[tex]\frac{1}{2(x + 4)} = \frac{1}{2(x+ 1)}[/tex]

cross multiply

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

Expand the bracket

2x + 2= 2x + 8

collect like terms

2x - 2x = 8 - 2

0 = 6

Thus, simplifying the expression gives 0 = 6
