We need to add like terms and distribute before we try to isolate X.
10x+3=8x+4-2
10x+3=8x+2

Now let's isolate x. We should start with subtracting 8x from both sides.
2x+3=2
Now, let's subtract 3 from both sides.
2x=-1
Now divide each side by 2.
X=-0.5
We now know x is -0.5, so let's check.
5(-0.5)+5(-0.5)+3=4[2(-0.5)+1]-2
-2.5-2.5+3=4(0)-2
-5+3=0-2
-2=-2

So, X= -0.5
