Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]-5(x-4) = -30\\[/tex]

Step 1: Divide the entire equation by -5 and reduce to lowest terms.

[tex]\frac{-5}{-5}(x-4) = \frac{-30}{-5}\\\\(x-4) = 6[/tex]

Step 2: Open the brackets and bring all constants on one -side, leaving variables on the other side of the equation.

[tex]x-4 =6 \\x = 6 +4\\x=10[/tex]
