Answer 2

Answer:

$x = -36$

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for $x$ :

$10x + 36 = 8x - 36$

-Subtract $8x$ from $10x$ :

$10x - 8x + 36 = 8x - 8x - 36$

$2x + 36 = -36$

-Subtract both sides of the equation by $36$ :

$2x + 36 - 36 = -36 -36$

$2x = -72$

-Take $2x$ divide it on both sides:

$\frac{2x}{2} = \frac{-72}{2}$

$x = -36$

So therefore, the value of $x$ is $-36$.
