Question

-4(4+4x)=144

Answer 1

If we are solving for x, we just need to get it by itself.

Lets divide each side by -4 first.

Answer 2

does x=-10 or can you show me, please?

Answer 3

I sure can. Let's work through this.

-4*(4+4x) = 144. Divide each side by -4.
(4+4x) = -36
4x = -40 (Subtracted 4 from each side)
x = -10 (Divide each side by 4)

So yes x= -10 !
