Answer:
Explanation:
if an equation needs only one step to isolate the variable, it is 1-step. For example, 4x=16, which means x=4. Generally I’m not sure of a way other than that to know if an equation is one step or multi-step.
-4(x+5)-2=6x
So, use distributive property.
-4x-20-2=6x
Add 4x to both sides.
-20-2=10x
Solve -20-2.
-22=10x
Divide 10 from both sides.
x=-10/22
Simplify
x=-5/11
