Question

What is the solution to the equation 82 (4x + 2) = 10?​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -77/164

Step-by-step explanation:

82(4x+2) = 10

328x+164 = 10

328x = -154

x = -77/164

Answer 2

Answer:

$-\frac{77}{164}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Apply the distributed property: 82 × 4x = 328x, 82 × 2 = 164
2. Re-write the problem: 328x + 164 = 10
3. Subtract 164 from each side, so it now looks like this: 328x = -154
4. Divide each side by 328 to cancel out the 328 next to x. It should now look like this: $x = -\frac{77}{164}$  

I hope this helps!
