Solve [2x+2/2)*3:-4=10

$$[ \frac { 2 x + 2 } { 2 } ) \cdot 3 : - 4 = 10$$

Solve for x

$$x = -\frac{43}{3} = -14\frac{1}{3} \approx -14.333333333$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides by -4.

$$\frac{2x+2}{2}\times 3=10\left(-4\right)$$

Multiply both sides of the equation by 2.

$$\left(2x+2\right)\times 3=20\left(-4\right)$$

Use the distributive property to multiply 2x+2 by 3.

$$6x+6=20\left(-4\right)$$

Multiply 20 and -4 to get -80.

$$6x+6=-80$$

Subtract 6 from both sides.

$$6x=-80-6$$

Subtract 6 from -80 to get -86.

$$6x=-86$$

Divide both sides by 6.

$$x=\frac{-86}{6}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{-86}{6} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$x=-\frac{43}{3}$$
