Answer:

2(19$x$x  -11)

        0R

38x - 22

Step-by-step explanation:

QESTION: 18x – 4(9 – 5x) + 14

Rearrange terms that whould be -: 18x – 4(-5x + 9) + 14

Disterbot the one in brakect and the nagative four: – 4(-5x + 9)

SLOVE:  – 4(-5x + 9) ^^ 4 x 5 = 20 and 4 x 9 = 36 ^^ PUT THE ALL TOGETHER.

What you have now --> 18x + 20x - 36 + 14

Now, it's time to use your PEMDAS, we have Add and Subtract so you are going to do A fisrt (Add).

-36 + 14 = -22

Now you have, 18x + 20x - 22

Combine the like terms: 18x + 20x = 38x (don't forget the - 22)

38x - 22

2 x 19 = 38

2 x 11 = 22

What do you notice? ------- They all have 2 right? YES!, So put 2 in the front with parentheses, then put 19x and -11 in the parentheses.  

Here is your EQUATION!

2(19$x$  -11)
