Mathematics

Finger [1]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

-72 = 3(-4x - 8)

Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>

<u>Distribute 3:</u> -72 = -12x - 24

<u>Add 24 to both sides:</u> -48 = -12x

<u>Divide both sides by -12:</u> x = 4

Step 3: Check

<em>Plug in x to verify if it's a solution.</em>

-72 = 3(-4(4) - 8)

-72 = 3(-16 - 8)

-72 = 3(-24)

-72 = -72
