Simplify 5(s + 120):
Distribute the 5 to each term in (s+120)
5 * s = (5 * 1)s = 5s
5 * 120 = (5 * 120) = 600
Our Total expanded term is 5s + 600
Our new term is
5s + 600
5(s+120)=7s
Answer
s=0
↓Steps Explained:↓
Solve for s
5(s + 120) = 7s
Show our new expression:
=7s
Group variables
Group our variables and 7s
subtract 7s from both sides
-7s = 7s - 7s
Cancel 7s on the right side:
-6s = 0
Divide each side of the equation by -6
| -6s | |
| -6 |
| = |
| 0 |
| -6 |
s = 0
