To solve for x, the first thing to do is to distribute the 4 to (x-2). When you do this, you should get 4x-8=4x+10 Then, subtract 4x from both sides and then you are left with -8=10. Because -8 is not equal to 10, meaning the equation you are left with is not a true statement, the answer to this would be that there are no real solutions.
