Question

-4(3x-2)=-32

Answer 1

do you know how to distribute through the parenthesis ?

Answer 2

yes. it is just that i am confuse??

Answer 3

-4(3x - 2) = -32
-12x + 8 = -32 (subtract 8 from both sides)
-12x = -32 - 8
-12x = -40 (divide both sides by -12)
x = -40/-12
x = 10/3

check...-4(3(10/3) - 2) = -32
-4(30/3 - 2) = -32
-4(30/3 - 6/3) = -32
-4(24/3) = -32
-4(8) = -32
-32 = -32 (correct)

x = 10/3

any questions ?
