Question

6(2x - 5) = -(x + 4)

Answer 1

$6(2x - 5) = - (x + 4)$

$12x - 30 = - x - 4$

$13x = 26$

$x = 2$

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

6(2x - 5) = -(x + 4)

Use the distributive property.

12x - 30 = -(x + 4)

12x - 30 = -x - 4

Add x to both sides.

13x - 30 = -4

Add 30 to both sides.

13x = 26

Divide both sides by x.

x = 2

Your final answer would be x = 2
