Hello there!

`-13-3*x-(-10)=0 \\ \\ \sf we \ then \ pull \ out \ like \ factors. \\ \\ -3 - 3x = -3 * (x + 1) \\ \\ Solve : -3 = 0 \\ \\ Solve : x+1 = 0 \\ \\ \sf{Subtract \ 1 \ from \ both \ sides \ of \ the \ equation : x = -1 }\\ \\ \sf{Therefore, \ your \ answer \ would \ then \ be \ \bf{-1}} \\ \\ \boxed{\sf{\bf{x=-1}}}`

Answer 2

-13 - 3x = -10

-13 + 10 = 3x

-3 = 3x

x = -3 : 3 = -1
