Question

I'm having a hard time solving this
May I please have an explanation

Answer 1

e = 9

Explanation:

4e - 10 = 2e + 8

=> 4e + (-2e) - 10 = 2e + (-2e) + 8

=> 2e -10 = 8

=> 2e -10 + (+10) = 8 (+10)

=> 2e = 18

=> 2e/2 = 18/2

=> e = 9

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

e = 9

Explanation:

ok e is just x, so we have to get it alone

4e - 10 = 2e + 8

We move the 2 since its smaller than the 4, and we move it two the other side. 4-2=2 so the new e is 2, now that 8 is alone (since we moved the 2), we cant be having the e with the -10... like this..

2e - 10 = 8, so we now add 10 so it can go with the 8, the new equation is this..

2e = 18

18/2 = 9

simple explanation

4e - 10 = 2e + 8

2e = 18

e = 9

(does that make sense)
