Solving Multistep Distributive

What is the first step in solving the equation 2a - 4(a - 5) = 10

• Add 4 to both sides

• Add the 2a and a 

• Distribute 4 to a and -5

• Distribute -4 to a and -5

4(a + 3) = -32

• -11

• -44

• -20

• -8

Solve for the variable h in the following equation:

10( h + 1) - 4 = 76

• h = 10

• h = 4

• h = 7

• h = 76

8v - 4(v + 8) = 8

• 2

• 10

• 4

• -4 

3x + 2(4x - 4) = 3

• 4

• 3

• 2

• 1

6 (-6 -5v) = 84

• -3

• -5

• -4

• 3

Use the distributive property to solve the equation 4(2x - 3) = 2(5x + 2)

• x = -1/2

• x = 3/4

• x = 2/3

• x = -3/4

Solve the equation 2(3x - 4) = 5x - 6

• x = 5

• x = 0

• x = 2

• x = -3

Use the distributive property to solve the equation 2(3x - 4) = 5x - 6

• x = -3

• x = 5

• x = 10

• x = 2

Use the distributive property to solve the equation 3(2x + 5) = 4(3x - 2)

• x = 10

• x = -5

• x = 7

• x = -22
