Question

-4x + 10 = 50 plz help

Answer 1

`\huge\text{Hey there!}`

`\large\text{-4x + 10 = 50}`

`\large\text{SUBTRACT by 10 to BOTH SIDES}`

`\large\text{-4x + 10 - 10 = 50 - 10}`

`\large\text{Cancel out: 10 - 10 because that gives you 0}`

`\large\text{Keep: 50 - 10 because it helps us solve for your x value}`

`\large\text{50 - 10 = 40}`

`\large\text{New equation: -4x = 40}`

`\large\text{DIVIDE by -4 to BOTH SIDES}`

`\mathsf{(-4x)/(4)=(40)/(-4)}`

`\large\text{Cancel out: }\mathsf{(-4)/(-4)}\large\text{ because that gives you 1}`

`\large\text{Keep: }\mathsf{(-40)/(4)}\large\text{ because it helps find x}`

`\mathsf{(-40)/(4)= -40/4 \rightarrow \bf -10}`

`\boxed{\boxed{\large\text{Answer: \bf x = -10}}}\huge\checkmark`
