Question

Solve : -4x – 10 = -38

Answer 1

Answer:

x=7

Step-by-step explanation: First what i did was move the constant(-10) to the right, and i switched the sign to a positive number (10). Next, i calculated -38+10, and i got -28 as my answer. I divided -4 from both sides, which cancels out the -4, and when you divide -28 and -4, you get 7.
