Question

Find the value of x in (-17) ✖ [(-5) +x] = [(-17) ✖ (-5)] +[(-17) ✖ 4]



Help me please

Answer 1

-17× [(-5) +x] = -17 × (-5) -17 × 4

-17(x-5)=17

x=4

Answer 2

Answer:

-68

Step-by-step explanation:

(-17) × [(-5) + x] = [(-17) × (-5)] +[(-17) × 4]

[(-17)×(-5)] +[ (-17)×x] = 85 + (-68)

85 + x = 85 - 68

85 + x = 17

x = 17 - 85

x = - 68 ( ans )
