Hello! :)

To find you equation, we will first simplify both sides of the equation

10x - 3x + 5 = 26

10x + -3x + 5 = 26

(10x -3x) + (5) = 26

7x + 5 = 26

7x +5 = 26

Now, we will subtract 5 from both sides

7x + 5 - 5 = 26 - 5

7x = 21

At last, we will divide both sides by 7

7x/7 = 21/7

x=3 (Answer)

Hope this helped you!

Answer:

x = 2.17 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)

Explanation:

10x - 3x + 5x = 26

Subtract 3x from 10x

7x + 5x = 26

Add 7x and 5x together

12x = 26

Divide 26 by 12

x = 2.17 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
