Answer 2

Subract 2 both sides

3x+2=x-10
-2 -2
========
3x=x-12

Bring x left side
3x-x=-12
2x=-12

Divide -12 with 2
x=-12/2
x=-6

Answer 3

ok when working problems like this you get the x on one side
3x+2=x-10
subtreact x from both sides
2x +2=-10
subtract the 2 from both sides
2x=-12
so now dived both by 2
x=-6

Any questions or confusions???
