\sqrt{10}x-\sqrt{5}x=2
Subtract \sqrt{5}x from both sides.
\left(\sqrt{10}-\sqrt{5}\right)x=2
Combine all terms containing x.
\frac{\left(\sqrt{10}-\sqrt{5}\right)x}{\sqrt{10}-\sqrt{5}}=\frac{2}{\sqrt{10}-\sqrt{5}}
Divide both sides by \sqrt{10}-\sqrt{5}.
x=\frac{2}{\sqrt{10}-\sqrt{5}}
Dividing by \sqrt{10}-\sqrt{5} undoes the multiplication by \sqrt{10}-\sqrt{5}.
x=\frac{2\sqrt{5}+2\sqrt{10}}{5}
Divide 2 by \sqrt{10}-\sqrt{5}.
