All you have to do is follow PEMDAS (if you don't know what that is, search it up).


-2-5(4n-6)=-132

Distribute the 5 to everything in the parentheses.

-2-20n+30= -132

Combine like terms.

-20n+28 = -132

Subtract 28 from both sides.

-20n = -160

Divide by -20 on both sides.

n = 8

Use order of operations rules to evaluate all terms of -2-5(4n-6)=-132, and then solve for n:

Must multiply -5(4n-6) first: -20n + 30. Then we have -2 - 20n + 30 = -132.

Adding 2 to both sides, we get -20n + 30 = -130, or -20n = -160.

Solving for n, n = 160/20 = 8 = n

What is hs the answer to this question?<br><br> Y= 5x+5<br> Y - x=5
ANEK [815]
Y = 5x + 5
y - x = 5

You can use substitution to solve this system. Use y's expression (5x + 5) for y in the second equation to solve for x:

y - x = 5
5x + 5 + x = 5
6x + 5 = 5
6x = 0
x = 0

Substitute your value for x into one of the original equations to y:

y = 5x + 5
y = 5(0) + 5
y = 5

Finally, substitute both values into both original equations to check your work:

5 = 5(0) + 5    -->    5 = 5    <--True
5 - 0 = 5    -->    5 = 5    <--True

Answer:
x = 0
y = 5

2(5x+4) =10x+6 <br> is this equation always, sometimes or never true?<br> Asap please
frosja888 [35]
The equation is never true because you have to multiply 2 with all numbers in the parentheses. Therefore

2(5x +4) = 10x + 8.

Because 2 x 4 is not 6 but 8
