โˆ’4(2x + 5) โˆ’ 3x = 35

Answer

Step 1: Distribute the -4 into the parentheses:

-4 * 2x = -8x and -4 * 5 = -20

So, the equation becomes: -8x - 20 - 3x = 35

Step 2: Combine like terms:

-8x - 3x = -11x

So, the equation becomes: -11x - 20 = 35

Step 3: Add 20 to both sides to isolate the term with x:

-11x = 35 + 20

-11x = 55

Step 4: Divide both sides by -11 to solve for x:

x = 55 / -11

x = -5
