Question 539045: 5x+28=-3(x-4)
Answer by Mathpassionate(25)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 5x+28=-3(x-4)
5x+28= -3x +3*4
5x+28= -3x +12
5x+3x = +12-28
8x = -16
x = (-16)/8
x = -2
To prove, we can substitute x= -2 into the original equation 5x+28=-3(x-4)
5x+28=-3(x-4)
5*(-2)+28 = -3*(-2-4)
-10+28 = -3*(-6)
18 = 18
So the answer is x = -2
Any questions, please let me know.
