Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
4(-2x + 9) = -2(3x -7) {use distributive rule}
4*-2x + 4*9 = -2*3x - 7*(-2)
-8x + 36 = -6x + 14
Subtract 36 from both sides
-8x + 36 - 36 = -6x + 14 -36
-8x = -6x - 22
Add 6x to both sides
-8x + 6x = -6x +6x - 22
-2x = -22
Divide both sides by (-2)
-2x/-2 = -22/-2
x = 11
