To solve the equation 4(х+10) = 1, we need to isolate the variable "x" on one side of the equation.
First, distribute the 4 to both terms inside the parentheses:
4x + 40 = 1
Next, subtract 40 from both sides of the equation to move the constant term to the other side:
4x + 40 - 40 = 1 - 40
This simplifies to:
4x = -39
Finally, divide both sides of the equation by 4 to solve for x:
4x/4 = -39/4
The equation becomes:
x = -39/4
So, the solution to the equation is x = -39/4.
