How do you solve #−4(x + 1) − 3 = −3(x − 4) #?
Ethan AdkinsExpand all of the terms, then move all of the factors to one side of the equation, setting it equal to zero.
-4x - 4 - 3 = -3x +12
-x - 19 = 0
-x = 19 x = -19

Avery AlexanderTo solve the equation −4(x + 1) − 3 = −3(x − 4), you first distribute the terms inside the parentheses:
-4x - 4 - 3 = -3x + 12
Next, combine like terms:
-4x - 7 = -3x + 12
Now, isolate the variable terms by adding 4x to both sides:
-7 = x + 12
Subtract 12 from both sides:
-19 = x
So, the solution to the equation is x = -19.
