Question

`(x)/(2) + 10 = * - 3`

The answer is 26, but I dont know how to solve it​

Answer 1

First of all move all the Xs to the left side, and the numbers to the left.
So
x/2-x = -13
Which means
X/2-x/1 = -13
Which means x/2-2x/2 = -13
So u combine to two fractions
-x/2 = -13
-x = -13 * 2
Which means x = 26 (u flip the negativity)
