Answer:


\huge \boxed{x = - 12}

Explanation:


4x – 2(x + 1) = 3x + 10

Expand the terms in the bracket

That's


4x - 2x - 2 = 3x + 10 \\ 2x - 2 = 3x + 10

Subtract 2x from both sides of the equation


2x - 2x - 2 = 3x - 2x + 10 \\ - 2 = x + 10

Subtract 10 from both sides of the equation


- 2 - 10 = x + 10 - 10 \\ x = - 12

We have the final answer as


x = - 12

Hope this helps you
