Help!! 2x+3 (x-4)=x-20

1 answer:

8 0

Remember you can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides

2x+3(x-4)=x-20
first distribute
2x+3(x)+3(-4)=x-20
2x+3x-12=x-20
5x-12=x-20
minus x both sides
4x-12=-20
add 12 to both sides
4x=-8
divide both sides by 4
x=-2

-8x - 2(-5x) = -4
- 8x + 10x = -4
2x = -4
x = -4/2 = -2
