Answer:

The solution to the equation is
x = 8

Explanation:

To solve the equation, first we apply the distributive property on the parenthesis, then we isolate x.

Solution:


3(10 - x) = 6

Applying the distributive:


3*10 - 3*x = 6


30 - 3x = 6

Solving for x


3x = 30 - 6


3x = 24


x = (24)/(3)


x = 8

The solution to the equation is
x = 8
