sorry i'm late!

Answer:

x = x

Explanation:

-5 (1 - 5x) + 5 (-8x - 2) = -4x - 11x - 15

1. Combine like terms and distribute: -5 + 25x + -40x - 10 = -15x - 15

2. Combine like terms: -15x - 15 = -15x - 15

3. Move the 15's by adding 15 to both sides: -15x = -15x

4. Get rid of the -15's by dividing them: x = x
