Question

D + 4(d + 6) = -11 *

Answer 1

Hello! :)

d + 4(d + 6) = -11

d + (4)(d) + (4)(6) = -11 Distribute

d + 4d + 24 = -11

(d+4d) + (24) = -11 Combine like terms

5d + 24 = -11

5d + 24 - 24 = -11 - 24 Subtract 24 from both sides

5d = -35

5d/5 = -35/5 Divide both sides by 5

-35/5 = -7 Simplify

d = -7

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Hey there!

$d+4(d+6)=-11$

Let's simplify both sides of the equation:

$d+4(d+6)=-11$

Now let's distribute:

$d+(4)(d)+(4)(6)=-11\\d+4d+24=-11$

Now combine like terms:

$(d+4d)+(24)=-11\\5d+24=-11$

Subtract 24 from both sides:

$5d+24-24=-11-24\\5d=-35$

Now divide both sides by 5:

$\frac{5d}{5}=\frac{-35}{5}$

In order to get our answer, we need to simplify by dividing -35 and 5:

$\frac{-35}{5} =-7\\d=-7$

Hope this helps!
