Yes

Practice makes perfect
We can determine whether 1 is a solution by substituting it into the equation and simplifying using the order of operations.
3(x-2)+4x-1=x-1
Substitute

x= 1

3( 1-2)+4( 1)-1? = 1-1
SubTerm

Subtract term

3(-1)+4(1)-1? =1-1
Multiply

Multiply

-3+4-1? =1-1
AddSubTerms

Add and subtract terms

0=0
Since both sides are equal, 1 is a solution.
