Question

−10x + 6(x − 5) = 12x − 62

Answer 1

Answer: x=2

Explanation:

first you distribute -10x+6x-30=12x-62

then combine all like terms -16x=-32

then divide -16x/-16=-32/-16

answer x=2

Answer 2

`x=2`

Explanation:

So we have:

`-10x+6(x-5)=12x-62`

Distribute:

`-10x+6x-30=12x-62`

Combine like terms:

`-4x-30=12x-62`

Subtract 12x from both sides:

`-16x-30=-62`

Add 30 to both sides:

`-16x=-32`

Divide both sides by -16:

`x=2`

And that's our answer :)
