6a-2(4a-5)=40
How do I solve it

Distribute, then combine like terms, subtract 10 from both sides of the equation, simplify, divide both sides of the equation by the same term, and simplify to get your solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) Distribute

6−2(4−5)=40

6−8+10=40

2.) Combine like terms

6a-8a+10=40

-2a+10=40

3.) Subtract 10 from both sides of the equation

-2a+10=40

-2a+10-10=40-10

4.) Simplify

subtract the numbers

-2a+10-10=40-10

-2a=40-10

subtract the numbers

-2a=40-10

-2a=30

-2a=30

5.) Divide both sides of the equation by the same term

-2a=30

6.) Simplify

cancel terms that are in both the numerator or denominator

a=

Divide the numbers

a=

a=-15

a=-15

7.) Solution

a=-15
