Starting with the given equation, we can simplify it by distributing the -5 to both terms inside the parenthesis:
6 - 15x + 20 = -34
Combine like terms:
-15x + 26 = -34
Subtract 26 from both sides:
-15x = -60
Divide by -15:
x = 4
Therefore, the solution is x = 4.
So, the correct choice is:
A. The solution is x = 4.
Solve.
6 - 5(3x - 4) = - 34
