Remove parentheses, cancel x on both sides. Simplify −1+x−2+x−3+x−4 to −10+3x then regroup the terms. Finally, add 10 to both sides and divide both sides by 3.
(x - 1) + (x - 2) + (x - 3) + (x - 4) = x
x−1+x−2+x−3+x−4=x
−1+x−2+x−3+x−4=0
−10+3x=0
3x−10=0
3x=10
x=10/3
Hope this helps, HAVE A BLESSED AND WONDERFUL DAY! As well as a great Superbowl Weekend! :-)
