Answer:
x=140/-18
x=-7+7/9
Step-by-step explanation:
-5(4x-2)+2x+1=151
We move all terms to the left:
-5(4x-2)+2x+1-(151)=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
2x-5(4x-2)-150=0
We multiply parentheses
2x-20x+10-150=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
-18x-140=0
We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right
-18x=140
x=140/-18
x=-7+7/9
