Solve −4(x + 10) − 6 = −3(x − 2). (1 point)

Hey there!!

Given equation :

... -4 ( x + 10 ) - 6 = -3 ( x - 2 )

Using the distributive property :

... -4x - 40 - 6 = -3x + 6

Combining like terms :

... -4x - 46 = -3x + 6

Adding 46 on both sides :

... -4x = -3x + 52

Adding 3x on both sides :

... -x = 52

... x = -52

Hope helps!

x = -3

y = -18

step-by-step explanation:

to solve by substitution, substitute one variable and solve for the other. then substitute again to find the remaining variable.

x-1/3(3x-9) = -3 since y=3x-9 substittute y.

x-1/3(3x-9)=-3

x + x +3 = -3

2x+3=-3

2x+3-3= -3-3

2x=-6

x=-3

substitute again into y=3x-9

y=3(-3)-9

y=-9-9

y=-18
