Answer: No
Explanation:
1 + 4(3x - 10) - 12x = 9
simplifies to
1+12x - 40 -12x =9
combine like terms to get
-39 = 9
This is not possible so the answer is no.
Answer:
Since you have to distribute the 4 to both terms in parentheses, the equation is simplified like this:
1 + 12x - 40 -12x
= 1 - 40
= -39
