Question

4(5x+7−8x)+2=−3(4x−10) need major help, how do you solve step by step?

Answer 1

All real numbers are solutions.

Explanation:

4(5x+7−8x)+2=−3(4x−10)

(4)(5x)+(4)(7)+(4)(−8x)+2=(−3)(4x)+(−3)(−10)(Distribute)

20x+28+−32x+2=−12x+30

(20x+−32x)+(28+2)=−12x+30(Combine Like Terms)

−12x+30=−12x+30

−12x+30=−12x+30

Step 2: Add 12x to both sides.

−12x+30+12x=−12x+30+12x

30=30

Step 3: Subtract 30 from both sides.

30−30=30−30

0=0

Answer 2

Any real number is a solution.

Hope this helps.
