Question

4(6x - 10) = 8x + 40

Answer 1

x = 5

Explanation:

4(6x -10) = 8x + 40

24x - 40 = 8x + 40

now were going to get the variable and the numbers on different sides

24x - 40 + 40 = 24x

8x + 40 - 8x = 40

24x - 8x = 16x

40 + 40 = 80

16x = 80

now divide each side by 16

16x / 16 = x

80 / 16 = 5

x = 5

Answer 2

5

Explanation:

24x-40=8x+40

plus 40

24x=8x+80

then u subtract 8

then u get 16x

then 80 divied by 16

u get 5
