Answer:Simplifying
x = -2.125
Step-by-step explanation:Add '-10' to each side of the equation.
10 + -10 + 8x = -7 + -10
Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0
0 + 8x = -7 + -10
8x = -7 + -10
Combine like terms: -7 + -10 = -17
8x = -17
Divide each side by '8'.
x = -2.125
Simplifying
x = -2.125
Answer: x=-17/8
First, distribute the 10
10x + 10 = 2x - 7
Next, move the x-values to one side
8x = -17
Now, isolate the x by dividing both sides by 8
x = -17/8
