Answer:
a = 6, b = - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Expand the left side and compare the coefficients of like terms to those on the right side.
a(4x - 10) ← distribute parenthesis
= 4ax - 10a
Compare to 24x + 5b , then
4a = 24 ( divide both sides by 4 )
a = 6
Then
5b = - 10a = - 10(6) = - 60 ( divide both sides by 5 )
b = - 12

B and C. if you got them wrong let me know :3
Answer:
x = 35
Step-by-step explanation:
5(x + 20) = 7x + 30
Distribute the 5 on the left side by multiplying 5 by the two terms, x and 20.
5x + 100 = 7x + 30
Subtract 7x from both sides.
-2x + 100 = 30
Subtract 100 from both sides.
-2x = -70
Divide both sides by -2.
x = 35
