-15 = 6x + 15 -10x

1st. You combine like terms

(6-10)x

-15 = -4x + 15

2nd. You move variables to the left side and change the sign

-15 = -4x + 15

+4x +4x

4x - 15 = 15

+15 +15

4x = 30

3rd. You divide both sides of the equation by 4

(4x) /4 = (30) /4

x= 30/4

4th. Reduce the fraction by 2

30/ 4 = 15/2

Answer is 15/2
