Move the expression to the left side
3x−2(2x−5)−4=0
Calculate
More Steps
Evaluate
3x−2(2x−5)−4
Expand the expression
More Steps
Calculate
−2(2x−5)
Apply the distributive property
−2×2x−(−2×5)
Multiply the numbers
−4x−(−2×5)
Multiply the numbers
−4x−(−10)
If a negative sign or a subtraction symbol appears outside parentheses, remove the parentheses and change the sign of every term within the parentheses
−4x+10
3x−4x+10−4
Subtract the terms
More Steps
Evaluate
3x−4x
Collect like terms by calculating the sum or difference of their coefficients
(3−4)x
Subtract the numbers
−x
−x+10−4
Subtract the numbers
−x+6
−x+6=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−x=0−6
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−x=−6
Solution
x=6
