Expression related to -1/3(6x+15)-3

x = -4 and -2x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Distribute

-1/3(6x + 15) - 3

-6/3x - 15/3 - 3

-2x - 5 - 3

-2x - 8

Step 2:  IF NEEDED SOLVE FOR X

-2x - 8 + 8 = 0 + 8

-2x / -2 = 8 / -2

x = -4

 x = -4 and -2x - 8

3< x< 5

step-by-step explanation:

|x - 4| < 1

there are two solutions, one positive and one negative.   remember to flip the inequality when taking the negative solution

x-4 < 1       x-4 > -1

add 4 to each side

x-4+4 < 1+4       x-4+4 > -1+4

x< 5                 x> 3

3< x< 5
