If you would like to simplify the equation 6 - (3x + 10) + 4 * (2 - x) = 15, you can do this using the following steps:

6 - (3x + 10) + 4 * (2 - x) = 15
6 - 3x - 10 + 8 - 4x = 15
6 - 10 + 8 - 15 = 3x + 4x
- 11 = 7x
x = - 11/7

The correct result would be x = - 11/7.

If you would like to simplify the equation 3 * (x + 2) + 4 * (x - 5) = 10, you can do this using the following steps:

3 * (x + 2) + 4 * (x - 5) = 10
3x + 6 + 4x - 20 = 10
7x = 10 - 6 + 20
7x = 24
x = 24/7

The correct result would be x = 24/7.
