Answer:

x=(-10)

Explanation:

ok, so the first step is to organize the equation: on the left we will put the X numbers, and on the right normal numbers, like this:

-X+2X=-6-4

(p.s I hope that you know that when you transfer numbers and other values,the sign changes : from plus to minus and vise versa)

so now, if you will do the simple math,you will find the value of X.

X=(-10)
