Answer:
x = 11/10
Step-by-step explanation:
we have from statement:
-1=1 - 4(-5+4x) – 4x
we apply distributive property:
-1 = 1 -4*(-5) -4*(4x) -4x
so we have:
-1= 1+20 -16x -4x
-1 = 21 -20x
-22=-20x
so we have:
x=22/20
x=11/10
we can substitute the x value found:
-1 = 1 - 4(-5+4*(11/10)) – 4*(11/10)
-1 = 1+20 -17.6 -4.4
-1 =21 -22
so we have:
-1 = -1
