Question

Solve for r.
-30 = 5(x + 1)

Answer 1

Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

so first we multiply 5 to the numbers in the parenthesis

-30=5X+5

then we subtract 5 from both sides

-30=5X+5

-5          -5

which equals

-35=5X

then we divide 35by5 which is 7 and since 35 is negative the answer will be

X= -7
