Answer:

First, distribute the -2 to each value in the parentheses.

-2x + 4 = 10

(The 4 is positive because a negative multiplied by a negative is a positive)

Then, subtract 4 from both sides to get rid of it.

-2x = 6

Divide by -2 to get x by itself

x = -3

Semmy [17]
The answer is 440.
What I do is just take the -11 and -15 out of the parentheses so it is -11*-15 and the answer is 165. Then, you take -11 and -25 out of the parentheses and find the answer.
Add them together.
Hope that helped :)
