5(x - 2) = 30

1. Distributive property: a(b - c) = ab - ac

(5)(x) - (5)(2) = 30

5x - 10 = 30

2. Addition property of equality

5x - 10 = 30       add 10 to both sides

5x - 10 + 10 = 30 + 10

5x = 40

3. Division property of equality

5x = 40       divide both sides by 5

5x : 5 = 40 : 5

x = 8
