Answer:

X is a variable and a single variable is equal to 1

Step-by-step explanation:

When we add variables its like adding numbers for example x+x is like saying 1+1 and thats why x+x is equal to 2x instead of x^2. Hope this helps.

When I do equations with x as the variable, I like to think of it as 1x. So if you have x+x, it would be the same as 1x+1x. You would have 2x rather than x^2. I hope this makes sense:)
