Standards
4.0 Students simplify expressions before
solving linear equations and inequalities in one
variable, such as 3(2x – 5) + 4(x – 2) = 12.
5.0 Students solve multistep problems,
including word problems, involving linear
equations and linear inequalities in one variable and
provide justification for each step.

You may have to combine like terms
or use the Distributive Property
before you begin solving.

Using Distributive Property
Solve the equation.
0011 0010 1010 1101 0001 0100 1011
5(p – 2) = –15
5(p – 2) = –15
5(p) + 5(–2) = –15
5p – 10 = –15
+10 +10
5p
= –5
Distribute 5.
Simplify.
1
2
Since 10 is subtracted from 5p, add 10 to
both sides.
4
Since p is multiplied by 5, divide both sides by
5.
p = –1
The solution set is {–1}.

Helpful Hint
You can think of a negative sign as a coefficient
of –1.
–(x + 2) = –1(x + 2) and –x = –1x.

Another Example
Solve the equation.
0011 0010 1010 1101 0001 0100 1011
10y – (4y + 8) = –20
10y +(–1)(4y + 8) = –20
Write subtraction as the addition of
the opposite.
10y + (–1)(4y) + (–1)(8) = –20 Distribute –1.
10y – 4y – 8 = –20
6y – 8 = –20
+8
6y
+8
= –12
y= -2
Simplify.

Combine like terms.
Since 8 is subtracted from 6y, add 8
to both sides to undo the
subtraction.

1. –4(2 – y) = 8 y = 4
4. d + 3(d – 4) = 20
