Answer: x=-15
Step-by-step explanation:
first distribute. -6(x-3)-2(1-5x)=-44 would be -6x+18-2(1-5x)=44.
then rearrange the terms to -6x+18+20x-2+-44.
distribute again to -6x+18+10x-2+-44
then subtract. you will then have =6x+16+10x+-44
combine like terms. 4x+16=-44
subtract 16 from both sides of the equation: 4x+16-16=-44-16
SIMPLIFY and get 4x=-60
then divide each side by 4. 4x/4=-60/4
then you get your answer, which is -15.
