What is your question?

OpenStudy (sphott51):

solve for x

OpenStudy (evoker):

Ah ok well start by multiplying on the right.

OpenStudy (sphott51):

3x = 2xm +10x - 2m -10

OpenStudy (sphott51):

3x-2xm -10x =-2m -10

OpenStudy (sphott51):

x(3 -2m -10) = -2m -10

OpenStudy (evoker):

divide and you are done

OpenStudy (sphott51):

-2m-10 / 3 -2m -10 .. Do I get rid of the same numbers?

OpenStudy (evoker):

Nope would have to stop there.
