Question

2(5x-7)=2x+10 what Is the distributive property

Answer 1

X = 3

Explanation:

first you would do 2 * 5x - 2 * 7 = 2x+10

second you'll get 10x- 14 = 2x + 10

third subtract the 2x by the 10x

fourth you'll get 8x

fifth then add the 14 to the 10

sixth 8x = 24

divide that by 8x to both sides

so then you get x=3
