Question

Solve these 2 equations

1.
-3 (4x-10)



2.
3(2+q)-15

Answer 1

Answer:

1.  -12x+30

2.  3q-9

Answer 2

Sure, let's solve each equation:

1. -3(4x - 10)

Distribute the -3:
-3 • 4x = -12x
-3 • (-10) = 30

So the equation becomes:
-12x + 30

2. 3(2 + q) - 15

Distribute the 3:
3 x 2 = 6
3 x q = 3q

So the equation becomes:
6 + 3q - 15

Combine like terms:
6 - 15 = -9

So the equation simplifies to:
-9 + 3q
