X= -1/2 IS THE ANSWER FOR THE QUESTION SO OTHERS I GUESS HAVE ANSWERD CORRECTLY IT CAN ALSO BE -0.5

First you distribute. so, 2(x - 5) = - 11
so since you distributed it would be, 2x - 10 = -11 
then you add 10 to both sides, so now its 2x=-1
now we divide, \frac{2x}{2} = \frac{-1}{2}
so now you get : x = -0.5
-------------------------------------------------------
Lets check. 
2(-0.5 - 5) = -11
so first we distribute, 
-1 - 10 = -11
does -1 - 10 = -11?? Yup!! So <u><em>x= -0.5</em></u> is your answer, i hope i helped! :D

Factor completely 4а^2 - 8а - 5
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

(2a + 1)(2a - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4a² - 8a - 5

Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the a² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the a- term

product = 4 × - 5 = - 20 and sum = - 8

The factors are + 2 and - 10

Use these factors to split the a- term

4a² + 2a - 10a - 5 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

= 2a(2a + 1) - 5(2a + 1) ← factor out (2a + 1) from each term

= (2a + 1)(2a - 5)
