Answer:
<h2>Add -60 and 36.</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
6(9x − 10) + 2(18 − 3x) = −8
<em>use the distributive property a(b + c) = ab + ac</em>
6(9x) + 6(-10) + 2(18) + 2(-3x) = -8
54x - 60 + 36 - 6x = -8 <em>combine like terms</em>
(54x - 6x) + (-60 + 36) = -8 <em>Answer: Add -60 and 36</em>
48x - 24 = -8 <em>add 24 to both sides</em>
48x = 16 <em>divide both sides by 48</em>
x = 16/48
x = 1/3
