Answer 1

distribute first...

\[\implies8a - 4 = -10a + 50\]
does that help?

Answer 2

no can you do it step by step its compicated

Answer 3

8a - 1 = -10a + 50
18a = 51
a = 51/18

Answer 4

sr a look wrong

Answer 5

8a - 4 = -10a + 50
18a = 46
a = 3

Answer 6

4(2a-1)=-10(a-5)
take 4 times the first term in () and then times second term
4(2a)-4(1)
8a-4
now you do the right side of the equal sign

Answer 7

i got -15 when i multiplied by -10

Answer 8

-10 x -5 is +50

-10 - 5 is -15

Answer 9

huh

Answer 10

you should set it up like this:
-10(a-5)
-10(a)-(-10)(5)
so then what

Answer 11

it = to -10-15

Answer 12

-10a+50
you are forgeting about the variable
-10 times first term (a) and then -10 times second term(-5)
so now you have
8a-4=-10a+50
so now get like terms togeher and whole numbers together
example:
2a-5=-8a+25
2a+8a-5+5=8a-8a+25+5
10a=30 then divide by 10
a=30/10
a=3

Answer 13

so what will you get

Answer 14

but a anegative times a negative is a egative and it subtract
okay this is what i did
4(2a-1)=-10(a-5)
8a-4=-10a-15
+10a +10a
18a -4=-15
+4 +4
18a=-11
thats up to where i stopped cuz i don,t understand

Answer 15

you have -15 but -10(-5) is -50 so corredt this and then show me your work

Answer 16
