Question

hi everyone
Solve -4(x + 10) - 6 = -3(x - 2).
A) -40
B) -46
C) -52
D) 52

Answer 1

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
−4(x+10)−6=−3(x−2)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
−4x−46=−3x+6
Step 2: Add 3x to both sides.
−4x−46+3x=−3x+6+3x
−x−46=6
Step 3: Add 46 to both sides.
−x−46+46=6+46
−x=52
Step 4: Divide both sides by -1.
−x
−1
=
52
−1
x=−52
Answer:
x=−52

Answer 2

-4(x + 10) - 6 = -3(x - 2).
-4*x +4*10 -6 =-3*x+3*2
