A=-20x-8
Use the distributive property to multiply -4 by 5x+2.
-20x-8=A
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-20x=A+8
Add 8 to both sides.
\frac{-20x}{-20}=\frac{A+8}{-20}
Divide both sides by -20.
x=\frac{A+8}{-20}
Dividing by -20 undoes the multiplication by -20.
x=-\frac{A}{20}-\frac{2}{5}
Divide A+8 by -20.
A=-20x-8
Use the distributive property to multiply -4 by 5x+2.
