Question

So I’ve recently moved out of equations. I still don’t understand it quite yet. Expample: 8x+4(-6x+4)=-6-5x
This isn’t homework or anything just a practice equation. Can someone answer and explain how to get the answer?

Answer 1

Open bracket

Answer 2

Mhm 🤔

Answer 3

8x+4(-6x+4)=-6-5x
distribute
8x-24x+16 = -6-5x
-16x+ 16 = -6-5x
-11x = -22
x = ?

Answer 4

can you follow along? I distributed, then combined like terms on the right and left, then isolated and solved for x
