-2x=4-5(x-4) equation
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-2*x = 4-5*(x-4)
Expand brackets in the right part
-2*x = 4-5*x+5*4
Looking for similar summands in the right part:
-2*x = 24 - 5*x
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$3 x = 24$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 3
x = 24 / (3)
We get the answer: x = 8
