Hello there!

Question:-


3x - 5x + 4 = 10

Here, we need to find the value of x for this equation.

Solution:-


\sf \longmapsto3x - 5x + 4 = 10

Firstly, Combine like terms :-


\sf \longmapsto(3x - 5x)+4=10

On Simplification:-


\sf \longmapsto - 2x +4 = 10

Subtract 4 from both sides:-


\sf \longmapsto - 2x+4 - 4=10 - 4

On Simplification:-


\sf \longmapsto \: - 2x + 0 = (10 - 4)


\sf \longmapsto - 2x =6

Divide both sides by -2 :-


\sf \longmapsto (2x)/( 2) = \frac{ 6} { - 2}

On Simplification:-

Cancel 2/2, leave x :-


\sf \longmapsto( \cancel2x)/( \cancel2) = (6)/( - 2 )

Then cancel 6/-2( -3 is the result ) :-


\sf \longmapsto \: 1x = ( \cancel6)/( - \cancel2)

As we know x = 1x,


\sf \longmapsto \: x = - 3

_____________________________________

Henceforth, the value of x in the given Equation is :-


x = - 3

I hope this helps!
