Answer:

X= -8

Step-by-step explanation:

First you distribute the 5 to the parenthesis to get 5x-30+4=7x-10. Then subtract 14 on both sides to get 5x-16=7x. Next, subtract 5x from both sides to get -16=2x. Now you divide by 2 on both sides to get -8=x.

Answer: x = - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step in applying the distributive property:

5 (x - 6) + 4 = 7x - 10

5x - 30 + 4 = 7x - 10

The second step is to combine like terms by subtracting 10 from -30, and subtracting 4 from - 20:

5x - 30 + 4 = 7x - 10

5x - 16 = 7x

The third step is to subtract 5x from 7x:

5x - 16 = 7x

- 16 = 2x

The last step is to divide each side by 2 to isolate the variable, or find x:

- 16/2 = 2x/2

- 8 = x

or x = - 8

I hope I helped and have a great day! ^-^
