Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(x+3)=-10

There are two ways to approach solving this problem

1.  You can distribute -2 to each term in the parentheses

-2x -6 = -10

OR

Divide each side by -2

2. -2(x+3)=-10

  -2/ -2 (x+3) = -10/-2

          x+3 = 5

They will both result in the same answer at the end
