Step-by-step explanation: (remember the 6 in this equation is positive so you'll subtract it and the 2 is actually -2x. First, you'll subtract 6 from itself and 10, the two 6's cancel out and 10-6=4. Then, you'll divide -2 and 4 by -2, the two -2's cancel out and 4 divided by -2 is -2. Finally, you'll see that x = -2. This is all done by the order of operations also known as PEMDAS. )
