Answer:

X=7

Explanation:

10+4x=5(x-6)+33

1. Distribute the 5 to both the x and the 6

10+4x=5x-30+33

2. Subtract 4x from 5x ( should be left with 1x but just write x)

10=x-30+33

3. add 30 to both sides (whole number on the left, x on the right)

40=x+33

4. Subtract 33 on both sides

7=x (flip it around)

x=7
