Answer

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation

The question asks us to solve for x in the equation


(374)/(x-10)=-22

To solve,


\begin{gathered} (374)/(x-10)=-22 \\ -22(x-10)=374 \\ -22x+220=374 \\ -22x=374-220 \\ -22x=154 \\ \text{Divide both sides by -22} \\ -(22x)/(-22)=(154)/(-22) \\ x=-7 \end{gathered}

Hope this Helps!!!
