Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

You would want to simplify and isolate "x" by itself.

First step is to add the like terms on one side:

2x+x+2=5x-10 ---> 3x+2=5x-10

Next, subtract 2 from both sides to simply the expression.

3x+2=5x-10

    -2        -2

=3x=5x-12

Subtract 5x from both sides as well to simplify:

3x=5x-12

-5   -5

=-2x=-12

Divide both sides by -2 to isolate the x by itself.

-2x=-12

/-2    /-2

x=6
