Answer: q=2

Explanation:

2q + 10-10= 7q

2q + 10-10 = 7q- 10

Simplify:

2q= 7q - 10

Subtract 7 q from both sides of the equation:

2q= 7q - 10

2q- 7q =7q- 10-7q

-5q= -10

Divide both sides of the equation by the same term:

-5q= -10

-5q/-5= -10/-5

Cancel terms that are in both the numerator and denominator:

q= -10/-5

Divide the numbers:

q= -10/-5

q=2
