10=18+12x+28
Use the distributive property to multiply 4 by 3x+7.
10=46+12x
Add 18 and 28 to get 46.
46+12x=10
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
12x=10-46
Subtract 46 from both sides.
12x=-36
Subtract 46 from 10 to get -36.
x=\frac{-36}{12}
Divide both sides by 12.
x=-3
Divide -36 by 12 to get -3.
