An equation is shown below:

5(2x - 8) + 15 = -15

write the steps you will use to solve the equation and explain each step.

According to pemdas, the first step is parentheses. multiply 2x and -8 by 5. the equation is now 10x-40+15=-15. add -40 and 15, which is -25. the equation is now 10x-25=-15. add -25 to -15 and you will get 10. the equation now looks like 10x=10. the final answer is x=1
