Solution

Sure, let's solve the equation step by step:

  1. Distribute -4 inside the parentheses on the left side of the equation: -4 * -2S + -4 * 4 = 8S - 16
  2. So, the equation becomes: 8S - 16 = 10S - 12
  3. To isolate the variable S, subtract 8S from both sides of the equation: -16 = 2S - 12
  4. Then, add 12 to both sides of the equation: -4 = 2S
  5. Finally, divide both sides of the equation by 2 to solve for S: S = -2

So, the solution to the equation "-4(-2S + 4) = 10S – 12" is S = -2.
