5(2x + 6) = -4(-5 - 2x) + 3x

Distribute: 10x + 30 = 20 + 8x + 3x

Combine like terms: 10x + 30 = 20 + 11x

Simplify: 10x + 30 - 20 = 20 - 20 + 11x

Simplify: 10x - 10x + 10 = 11x - 10x

Divide for x: 10/1 = 1x/1

x = 10

10x+30=20+11x

10x=20+11x-30

10x-11x=-10

-1x=-10

C. 5x - 2y = 16 is your answer

plug in each point into the equation.

(2, -3)

x = 2, y = -3

5(2) - 2(-3) = 16
10 + 6 = 16
16 = 16 (True)

(4,2)

x = 4, y = 2

5(4) - 2(2) = 16
20 - 4 = 16
16 = 16 (True)

hope this helps
