What do x equal-2 (x+5) = 4

Answer:x=-7

Because - 2 times x makes it - 2x and times 5 makes it 10 so it would be - 2x-10. you add 10 to get rid of the it and add ten to the 4 now it's - 2x=14 now you divide by - 2 and it'll equal x=-7

X=-7 because of the distribution property. Once you do that you can solve as normal
