Question

4(2-4x)-3x=65 Whats the answer and how did you solve it?

Answer 1

x= -3

Explanation:

Distribute 4(2-4x) which leaves you with 8-16x-3x=65

combine the like terms which leaves you with 8-19x=65

subtract 8 from both sides 8-19x-8=65-8 which leaves you with -19x=57

lastly divide -19 from both sides which leaves you with x= -3
