Answer 4

5x + -2 = 2x + 10

Reorder the terms:
-2 + 5x = 2x + 10

Reorder the terms:
-2 + 5x = 10 + 2x

Solving
-2 + 5x = 10 + 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.
-2 + 5x + -2x = 10 + 2x + -2x

Combine like terms: 5x + -2x = 3x
-2 + 3x = 10 + 2x + -2x

Combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0
-2 + 3x = 10 + 0
-2 + 3x = 10

Add '2' to each side of the equation.
-2 + 2 + 3x = 10 + 2

Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0
0 + 3x = 10 + 2
3x = 10 + 2

Combine like terms: 10 + 2 = 12
3x = 12

Divide each side by '3'.
x = 4

Simplifying
x = 4
