Answer: x = 3

Step by step

5 ( –1x + 5) = 10

(1) Distribute

= – 5x + 25 = 10

(2) Subtract 25 from both sides of the equation

= –5x + 25 -25 = 10 – 25

(3) Simplify

= –5x = – 15

(4) Divide both sides of the equation by the same factor

= –5x/–5 = –15/ –5

(5) Divide the number

= x = –15/–5

Answer: x = 3
