Simplifying
2(5x + -5) = 40
Reorder the terms:
2(-5 + 5x) = 40
(-5 * 2 + 5x * 2) = 40
(-10 + 10x) = 40
Solving
-10 + 10x = 40
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '10' to each side of the equation.
-10 + 10 + 10x = 40 + 10
Combine like terms: -10 + 10 = 0
0 + 10x = 40 + 10
10x = 40 + 10
Combine like terms: 40 + 10 = 50
10x = 50
Divide each side by '10'.
x = 5

Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
first you distribute so its
2 x 5x =10x
2 x 5 =10
so its now 10x -10=40
the you do the opposite of subtraction with the 10 so its +10 to the 40 which is 50
now ur left with 10x=50
you do the opposite of mulitpication which is division so u divide both sides by 10 and you get x=5
