Answer:

s = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

-5 (s - 30) = -10

Apply distributive property.

-5s + 150 = -10

We need to get "s" alone. By getting it alone, subtract 150 from both sides.

-5s + 150 - 150 = -10 - 150

-5s = -160

Wait a second, there is still a -5 on the s. We need to get s alone. Divide both sides by -5 to get s alone.

-5/-5s = -160/-5

s = 32

s = 32 is your answer AKA the last one. I hope this helps! Let me know if I got anything wrong or if you need any more help.
