Answer:
x= -12
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
4x + 10 = 2x + -14
Reorder the terms:
10 + 4x = 2x + -14
Reorder the terms:
10 + 4x = -14 + 2x
Solving
10 + 4x = -14 + 2x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-2x' to each side of the equation.
10 + 4x + -2x = -14 + 2x + -2x
Combine like terms: 4x + -2x = 2x
10 + 2x = -14 + 2x + -2x
Combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0
10 + 2x = -14 + 0
10 + 2x = -14
Add '-10' to each side of the equation.
10 + -10 + 2x = -14 + -10
Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0
0 + 2x = -14 + -10
2x = -14 + -10
Combine like terms: -14 + -10 = -24
2x = -24
Divide each side by '2'.
x = -12
Simplifying
x = -12

Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Define
Identify
4x + 10 = 2x - 14
Step 2: Solve for x
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 2x on both sides: 2x + 10 = -14
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 10 on both sides: 2x = -24
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide 2 on both sides: x = -12
