To solve for x, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation.
Let's start by distributing -30 into the expression inside the parentheses:
-30s + 300 = -180
Next, let's move the constant term to the right side of the equation by subtracting 300 from both sides:
-30s = -180 - 300
-30s = -480
Finally, we can solve for s by dividing both sides of the equation by -30:
s = -480 / -30
s = 16
Therefore, the solution is s = 16.
-30(s - 10) = -180
solve for x
