Question

Solve 4(x-8) + 2 = -10.

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

distribute 4 into (x - 8)

=> 4x - 32 + 2 = -10

combine like terms

=> 4x - 30 = -10

add 30 on both sides to isolate and solve for x

=> 4x = 20

divide both sides by 4

=> x = 5

Answer 2

Answer:

=5

Step-by-step explanation:

4(−8)+2=−10

4−32+2=−10

4−30=−10

4−30+30=−10+30

4=20

44=204

=5
