Hey there!
2x + 2 = -4(x - 5)
2x + 2 = -4(x) - 4(-5)
2x + 2 = -4x + 20
ADD 4x to BOTH SIDES
2x + 2 + 4x = -4x + 20 + 4x
SIMPLIFY IT!
6x + 2 = 20
SUBTRACT 18 to BOTH SIDES
6x + 2 - 2 = 20 - 2
CANCEL out: 2 - 2 because it give you 0
KEEP: 20 - 2 because it help solve for the x-value
NEW EQUATION: 6x = 20 - 2
SIMPLIFY IT!
6x = 18
DIVIDE 6 to BOTH SIDES
6x/6 = 18/6
CANCEL out: 6/6 because it give you 1
KEE: 18/6 because it help solve for the x-value
NEW EQUATION: x = 18/6
SIMPLIFY IT!
x = 3
Therefore, your answer is: x = 3
Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

<u><em>FALSE.</em></u><em></em>
A composite number is the opposite of a prime number. This is false because of the possibility of the following scenario:
The two numbers are 1 and a prime number.
This is because <em>one multiplied by any number is that number.</em> A prime number cannot become a composite number just because it is being multiplied by one. For example:
1 x 7 = 7 (prime)
Hope this helps!
