Hey there!!
In order to solve this equation, we will have to use the distributive property.
What is distributive property?
We will need to distribute one term to the other terms preset.
Example : 4 ( 3x - 1 )
sing distributive property, we will have to distribute the term outside the parenthesis to the terms inside. In this case, we will have to distribute 4 to 3x and -1
( 4 × 3x ) + ( 4 × -1 )
12x + ( -4 )
= 12x - 4
This is after implementing the distributive property.
Now moving back onto the question
4 ( x + 5 ) = 3 ( x - 2 ) - 2 ( x + 2 )
Let us first solve 4 ( x + 5 )
Distribute 4 to x and 5
( 4 × x ) + ( 4 × 5 )
4x + 20
Now let's solve 3 ( x - 2 )
Distribute 3 to x and -2
( 3 × x ) + ( 3 × - 2 )
3x - 6
Solve for -2 ( x + 2 )
Distribute -2 to x and 2
( -2 × x ) + ( -2 × 2 )
-2x - 4
Now, let's get everything back together
4x + 20 = 3x - 6 - 2x - 4
Combine all the like terms
4x + 20 = x - 10
Adding 10 on both sides
4x + 20 + 10 = x - 10 + 10
4x + 30 = x
Subtracting 4x on both sides
4x - 4x + 30 = x - 4x
30 = -3x
Dividing by -3 on both sides
30 / -3 = -3x / -3
- 10 = x
<h2>x = - 10 </h2><h3>Hope my answer helps!</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>
x - 5y = -40
18x - 5y = 45
<u>Step 2: Rewrite Systems</u>
18x - 5y = 45
- Multiply both sides by -1: -18x + 5y = -45
<u>Step 3: Redefine Systems</u>
x - 5y = -40
-18x + 5y = -45
<u>Step 4: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
<em>Elimination</em>
- Combine equations: -17x = -85
- Divide -17 on both sides: x = 5
<u>Step 5: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
- Define equation: x - 5y = -40
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 5 - 5y = -40
- Isolate <em>y</em> term: -5y = -45
- Isolate <em>y</em>: y = 9
Answer: 87, 88, 89, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98
Step-by-step explanation:
You basically try a whole bunch of numbers by taking those two numbers and another then adding them and dividing them by 3.
