Answer:

The value of x is 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

By question,

-4(x - 5) = 60

or,-4x + 20 = 60

or,-4x = 60 -20

or, -4x = 40

or, x =40/-4

Hence,x=10

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(x - 5 ) = 60

Solve for x.

-4(x - 5 ) = 60

Step 1 :- Distribute -4.

-4 × x - 4 × -5 = 60

-4x + 20 = 60

Step 2 :- Move constant to the right-hand side and change their sign.

-4x = 60 - 20

Step 3 :- Subtract 20 from 60.

-4x = 40

Step 4 :- Divide both side by -4.

[tex] \frac{ - 4x}{ - 4} = \frac{40}{ - 4} \\ [/tex]

Hence , x = 10
