Question 556315
{{{4x=30(x+2)}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{4x=30x+60}}} Distribute.



{{{4x-30x=60}}} Subtract {{{30x}}} from both sides.



{{{-26x=60}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{x=(60)/(-26)}}} Divide both sides by {{{-26}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.



{{{x=-30/13}}} Reduce.



----------------------------------------------------------------------


Answer:


So the solution is {{{x=-30/13}}}
