Question

how do you solve. 8-2(5x-3)

Answer 1

The answer is -10x+14

Answer 2

First you distribute the -2 into the 5x-3 to get -10x+6. Then you add the 6 and 8 to get 14 then add then on both sides of the equation to get 10x=14 then divide each by 10 to get x=1.4. Hope this helps you solve questions like this one.
