Question

Solve the equation for x.






0.6(5x + 10) = −24


A) −8

B) −10

C) −15

D) −18

Answer 1

you multiply 0.6 by 5x and 10 and you get 3x+6=-24. you then subtract 6 from both sides of the equation and you get 3x=-30. after that you divide both sides by 3 and you get x=-10. so the answer is B!
