Question

-8(5x-7)+6(8x-3)-3x+18=-44

Answer 1

-8 · (5х - 7) + 6 · (8х - 3) - 3х + 18 = -44

-40х + 56 + 48х - 18 - 3х + 18 = -44

(48х - 40х - 3х) + (56 - 18 + 18) = -44

5х + 56 = -44

5х = -44 - 56

5х = -100

х = -100 : 5

х = -20

Answer 2

To solve the equation -8(5x - 7) + 6(8x - 3) - 3x + 18 = -44, you can follow these steps:

1. Distribute the constants and variables within the parentheses:

-8 * 5x + 8 * 7 + 6 * 8x - 6 * 3 - 3x + 18 = -44

Now, simplify each term:

-40x + 56 + 48x - 18 - 3x + 18 = -44

2. Combine like terms on the left side of the equation:

(-40x + 48x - 3x) + (56 - 18 + 18) = -44

5x + 56 = -44

3. Move the constant term (56) to the right side of the equation by subtracting it from both sides:

5x = -44 - 56

5x = -100

4. Finally, isolate x by dividing both sides by 5:

x = -100 / 5 x = -20

So, the solution to the equation is x = -20.
