Solve −4(x + 10) − 6 = −3(x − 2). (1 point)
AURORKA [14]

Hey there!!

Given equation :

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

Using the distributive property :

... -4x - 40 - 6 = -3x + 6

Combining like terms :

... -4x - 46 = -3x + 6

Adding 46 on both sides :

... -4x = -3x + 52

Adding 3x on both sides :

... -x = 52

... x = -52

Hope helps!
