4-4(x+5)=6x-36 where do i start?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4(x+5) you need to distribute that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you mean the -4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so that would be -4x-20

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes so now you have 4-4x-20=6x-36. then add 4x to 6x to get 4-20=10x-36

OpenStudy (anonymous):

think you can solve from there?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ill work on it and post answer in 2 minuites

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright! :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
