Answer:

[tex]x=7[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

[tex]-2^2(-5x+10)=100[/tex]

Solve -2^2:

[tex]-4(-5x+10)=100[/tex]

Divide both sides by -4:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{ -4(-5x+10)}{-4}=\frac{100}{-4} \\\\-5x+10=-25[/tex]

Subtract 10 from both sides:

[tex]-5x+10-10=-25-10\\-5x=-35[/tex]

Divide both sides by -5:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{-5x}{-5} = \frac{-35}{-5} \\\\x=7[/tex]

Therefore, x = 7.

I hope this helps!
