Question

Solve for x: -5(x - 3) = 30


x = -9

x = 3

x = 9

x = -3

Answer 1

start with dividing by "-5" both sides

Answer 2

-5(x - 3) = 30
x-3 = -6
x = ?

Answer 3

\[-5\left( x-3 \right)=30\]
\[-5x-15=30\]
\[-5x+15=30\]
+15
cross both 15 out and you should end up with
-5x=45
divide both sides by -5
and 45/-5=
x=-9

Is this Clear ?
