2x-10=2. (Answer=6)

2x=12 (you move the -10 to the other side of the equation to make it positive)

Then you divide by 2

2x divided by 2 equals x 12 divided by 2 is 6

So your number is 6. x=6

And you can check this by redoing the equation but putting 6 instead of x

2(6)-10=2

12-10=2

2=2

This equation is true therefore, your unknown number is 6

Then, divide 7 on both sides:

Millimeters<br> Equal 15 centimeters 4 millimeters
Svetradugi [14.3K]

154mm

we know that  1cm = 10 mm

 therefore      15cm= 10*15 mm

                               =  150 mm

and 4 mm

we get total mm= 15cm +4mm

                          = 150mm+4mm

                           = 154 mm
