X = 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
By the way.
does February March?.... NO but April May
-3 (-5x + 4) = -6
•first distribute the -3 by multiplying it by the numbers inside the bracket
15x - 12 = -6
•move the 12 over to the other side to solve for x
Note: when moving numbers to the other side of the equal sign, the sign switches from negative (-) to positive (+)
15x = -6 + 12
•divide both side by 15 to solve for x
15x = 6
x = 6/15
OR (the fraction could be further reduced by dividing top and bottom by 3)
x = 2/5
Remember when multiplying or dividing:
(# -> number sign)
Positive # x positive # = positive number
Negative # x negative # = positive number
Positive x negative = negative
Negative x positive = negative
