Answer: No solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Given expression
4 (-8m + 5) = -32m - 26
Expand the parentheses and apply the distributive property
-32m - 20 = -32m - 26
Add 32m on both sides
-32m - 20 + 32m = -32m - 26 + 32m
[tex]\boxed{-20\neq -26}[/tex]
Since the resulting integer on both sides does not equal, this means the equation has no solution.
