You just gotta multiply the negative in the parentheses
why? because if you had to multiply 9 and the negative you should have -9 not 9-
u know what I'm saying

No  but you can rewrite the negative as -1 then distribute the -1:-

5x+14-2x=9-(4x+2)

5x + 14 - 2x = 9 -1(4x + 2)

3x + 14 = 9 - 4x - 2   Add -14 and 4x to both sides:-

3x + 4x = 9 - 2 - 14

7x = -7

x = -1  answer

Danny, Pedro, Derick, Jose, and Willy went to a soccer game. They each got a $3-off coupon to buy themselves a ticket to the gam
kondor19780726 [428]
I think it’s 22.4
the total is 37 then divided by 5 for each person. after you divide you add the $3 coupon so for each person would be 3 by 5 to equal 15. so 37 divided by 5 is 7.4 and then add 15 to get 22.4. If this is wrong please correct me :)

4 – (2y + 5) = 3(1 – 4y) show steps please
Lelu [443]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4−(2y+5)=3(1−4y)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

4−(2y+5)=3(1−4y)

4+−1(2y+5)=3(1−4y)(Distribute the Negative Sign)

4+−1(2y)+(−1)(5)=3(1−4y)

4+−2y+−5=3(1−4y)

4+−2y+−5=(3)(1)+(3)(−4y)(Distribute)

4+−2y+−5=3+−12y

(−2y)+(4+−5)=−12y+3(Combine Like Terms)

−2y+−1=−12y+3

−2y−1=−12y+3

Step 2: Add 12y to both sides.

−2y−1+12y=−12y+3+12y

10y−1=3

Step 3: Add 1 to both sides.

10y−1+1=3+1

10y=4

Step 4: Divide both sides by 10.

10y
