Answer:

The correct answer option is a. x = -64/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The distributive property is used to multiply a single term with two or more terms inside the brackets or you can say the equations which are in the form a (b + c).

Its main purpose is to expand the terms by first multiplying each term inside the bracket with the term outside the term and then adding the like terms together.

Solving <em>-19 = 5(x + 9)</em><em> </em>using distributive property, we get:

-19 = 5x + 45

-19 - 45 = 5x

5x = -64

Therefore, x = -\frac{64}{5}
