No direct answering please, at least explain part of it. @Bamboo888

OpenStudy (bamboo888):

I am, just wait

OpenStudy (eatme):

double check ur work

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

\[−5(2x−6)+8x=22\]Distributive property: \((-5(2x)-(-5)(6))+8x=22\) which leads to \((-10x-(-30))+8x=22\)

OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):

\[-10x+30+8x=22\]Add like terms and isolate \(x\), what did you get?

OpenStudy (eatme):

yup so far sooooooooo gooood
