Given the equation:
(6x–5)–7(3x+10)
Solve the equation.
Solution:
In order to solve the equation, we distribute first -7 to each value inside the parenthesis, thus we must take note that opposite signs will result to a negative number, whereas similar signs will result to a positive number.
= (6x–5)–7(3x+10)
= 6x - 5 - 21x + 70
Combine like terms.
= -15x + 65
Final answer:
= -15x + 65
