Combine like terms
-x = 4 + 6 - 3x
-x = 10 - 3x
Isolate the x, add 3x to both sides
-x (+3x) = 10 - 3x (+3x)
-x + 3x = 10
Simplify. Combine like terms
-x + 3x = 10
2x = 10
Isolate the x, divide 2 from both sides
2x/2 = 10/2
x = 10/2
x = 5
x = 5, or A is your answer

If we let the number of flip-flops be x in the equation and that the cost would be y ( in terms of x) and the income would be z ( in terms of x), these equations will likely intersect each other during breakeven. That is, when the total revenue that the company will gain from sales of the flip-flops just be equal with the total cost.
