Solve for s. −30(s−10)=−180 (1 point) Responses s = 16 s = 16 s = -4 s = -4 s = 50 s = 50 s = 70 s = 70

1 answer

To solve the equation −30(s−10)=−180, we can start by distributing the -30 on the left side of the equation:

-30s + 300 = -180

Next, we need to isolate the variable s by subtracting 300 from both sides of the equation:

-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 to the equation is s = 16.
