Answer:

No solution.

Step by step explanation:

To solve the following equation, we are going to use inverse operations to solve equations.

Addition and subtraction are inverse operations. Multiplication and division too.


\begin{gathered} 6(x-2)+4x-4=10x+16 \\ 6x-12+4x-4=10x+16 \\ 10x-16=10x+16 \\ -16=16\text{ }\rightarrow FALSE \end{gathered}

Since we have a result with a FALSE statement, that means the equation has no solution.
