We can solve this equation step by step:
-4(2x - 11) = 12
-8x + 44 = 12
-8x = 12 - 44
-8x = -32
x = -32 / -8
x = 4
Therefore, x = 4.
x=2
x=−4
x=−2
x=4
-4(2x - 11) = 12
-8x + 44 = 12
-8x = 12 - 44
-8x = -32
x = -32 / -8
x = 4
Therefore, x = 4.
-3(-4x - 3) = -27
12x + 9 = -27
12x = -27 - 9
12x = -36
x = -36 / 12
x = -3
Therefore, x = -3.
2x - 4x - 3 = -27
-2x - 3 = -27
-2x = -27 + 3
-2x = -24
x = -24 / -2
x = 12
Therefore, x equals 12.
First, distribute the -4 across the terms inside the parentheses:
-12x - 40 - 2 = 54
Combine like terms:
-12x - 42 = 54
Add 42 to both sides:
-12x = 96
Divide by -12:
x = -8
Therefore, x equals -8.
First, distribute the -5 across the terms inside the parentheses:
20x - 30x - 75 = -45
Combine like terms:
-10x - 75 = -45
Add 75 to both sides:
-10x = 30
Divide by -10:
x = -3
Therefore, x equals -3.
9x + 16 = 6x + 1
Subtract 6x from both sides:
3x + 16 = 1
Subtract 16 from both sides:
3x = 1 - 16
3x = -15
Divide by 3:
x = -15 / 3
x = -5
Therefore, x = -5.
