Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the distributive property, multiply:
-2 x 2x = 4x
-2 x 5 = 10
The new equation is now 8 - 7x = -4x - 10
You need x on one side and to do that subtract the smallest number from both sides, which is 8
The new equation is now -7x = -4x - 18
Add 4x to both sides to further get all the x on one sides
The new equation is now -3x = -18
Divide both sides by -3 to simplify it and remove the negative sign from x
The final answer is x = 6
That's it!
