Solve the equations -5(x + 3) = 25. Write the problem on the sketch pad then solve the problem algebraically. I need the answer and how you work it out :)
Step-by-step explanation: First distribute the -5 to the parenthatese, so multiply -5 by x and 3 to get -5x-15=25. Then add 15 to each side to end up with -5x=40. Then divide each side by -5 to get x = -8
