Question

5(2x+6)= -4(-5-2x)+3x

Answer 1

5(2x + 6) = -4(-5 - 2x) + 3x

Distribute: 10x + 30 = 20 + 8x + 3x

Combine like terms: 10x + 30 = 20 + 11x

Simplify: 10x + 30 - 20 = 20 - 20 + 11x

Simplify: 10x - 10x + 10 = 11x - 10x

Divide for x: 10/1 = 1x/1

x = 10

Answer 2

10x+30=20+11x

10x=20+11x-30

10x-11x=-10

-1x=-10

X=10
