Answer 2

Answer:

x = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

10−2x=19x+2−5x

10+−2x=19x+2+−5x

−2x+10=(19x+−5x)+(2)(Combine Like Terms)

−2x+10=14x+2

−2x+10=14x+2

Step 2: Subtract 14x from both sides.

−2x+10−14x=14x+2−14x

−16x+10=2

Step 3: Subtract 10 from both sides.

−16x+10−10=2−10

−16x=−8

Step 4: Divide both sides by -16.

−16x/−16 = −8/−16

x = 1/2
