10q=20
q=20/10=2

Answer 11

10(q-20)
If you distribute the 10, will you get the original?

Answer 12

what about this math problem:

Simplify and determine the coefficient of (negative 2/3x)(3y)(-2x)

Answer 13

@Worior9131 for your original problem, did you check the distribution to make sure it worked?

Answer 14

yes

Answer 15

really? cuz 10*20 = 200

Answer 16

the other person said i was correct

Answer 17

the other person was solving an equation.
Your problem isn't an equation. It's asking you to factor/reverse distribute

Answer 18

it is asking for the equivalent not what is = to 20

Answer 19

equivalent means equal, so it has to equal 10q + 20 when you distribute
