Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to find de value of x.

4x - 1 = 18

4x = 18 + 1

4x = 19

x = 19/4

x = 4,75 but, the questions says:  smallest integer value, so, the smallest is the integer number more near of 4,75, which is 5.

testing:

x = 5

4*5 - 1 > 18

20 -1 > 18

19 > 18 TRUE

x = 4

4*4 - 1 > 18

16 - 1 > 18

15 > 18 FALSE
