1)</h3>
• 6x -2(x -5) = -2 . . . . given
• 6x -2x +10 = -2 . . . . X Cameron errored here. When multiplying -2 by -5, the result is 10, not -10.
• 4x +10 = -2 . . . . . . x terms are correctly collected
• 4x +10 -10 = -2 -10 . . . . add the opposite of the constant on the left
• 4x/4 = -12/4 . . . . divide by the x-coefficient
• x = -3 . . . . . . . . . . simplify
