solve for x. Show your work 10=4(3a+2)
U mean solve for a?10=4(3a+2)10=(4)(3a)+(4)(2)(Distribute)10=12a+8Flip the equation.12a+8=10Subtract 8 from both sides.12a+8−8=10−812a=2 Divide both sides by 12.12a/12=2/12a=1/6
10=4(3a+2) 1: first you distribute the 4 to 3a and 2 (43a & 42)10=12a+8 2: subtract the 8 from both sides 2=12a 3: divide the both sides by 12 1/6=1
