Answer:

x=14

Explanation:

You want to get x by itself on one side so you start by canceling the smaller x: 2x. You do this by subtracting 2x from both sides. You should have 4=x-10. After this, you want to cancel the -10 to get x by itself. To do this, you have to add 10 on both sides. You should have x=14. Lmk if this helps!
