Answer: -4

Step-by-step explanation: remove the parentheses

x-6=5x+10

x-5x-6=10

then move the terms

x-5x=10+6

collect like terms

-4x=10+6

-4x=16

divide both sides

x=-4

Answer:

x = - 4

Explanation:


x - 6 = 5(x + 2) \\ \\ x - 6 = 5x + 10 \\ \\ x - 5x = 10 + 6 \\ \\ - 4x = 16 \\ \\ x = (16)/( - 4) \\ \\ x = - 4
