Solve for x

-4(2x-11)=12

1 answer

To solve for x, we will distribute the -4 to the terms in the parentheses:

-4(2x-11) = 12
-8x + 44 = 12

Next, we'll subtract 44 from both sides to isolate the term with x:

-8x + 44 - 44 = 12 - 44
-8x = -32

Dividing both sides by -8:

-8x / -8 = -32 / -8
x = 4

Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = 4.
