9x - 4(x - 2) =x + 20

We move all terms to the left:

  • 9x -4(x - 2) - (x + 20) = 0

Multiply

  • 9x - 4x -(x + 20) + 8 = 0

We get rid of the parentheses.

  • 9x - 4x - x - 20 + 8 = 0

We add all the numbers and all the variables.

  • 4x - 12 = 0

We move all terms containing x to the left hand side, all other terms to the right hand side

  • 4x=12
  • x = 12/4
  • x = 3

worty [1.4K]

Answer: hewo, there! your answer is below

x= -5/4

or x= 8

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1: Subtract 27x+40 from both sides.

4x2−(27x+40)=27x+40−(27x+40)

4x2−27x−40=0

Step 2: Factor left side of equation.

(4x+5)(x−8)=0

Step 3: Set factors equal to 0.

4x+5=0 or x−8=0

hope this helps you
