4-4t=-2\left(10+x_{2}\right)
Multiply 4 and -\frac{1}{2} to get -2.
4-4t=-20-2x_{2}
Use the distributive property to multiply -2 by 10+x_{2}.
-4t=-20-2x_{2}-4
Subtract 4 from both sides.
-4t=-24-2x_{2}
Subtract 4 from -20 to get -24.
-4t=-2x_{2}-24
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-4t}{-4}=\frac{-2x_{2}-24}{-4}
Divide both sides by -4.
t=\frac{-2x_{2}-24}{-4}
Dividing by -4 undoes the multiplication by -4.
t=\frac{x_{2}}{2}+6
Divide -24-2x_{2} by -4.
4-4t=-2\left(10+x_{2}\right)
Multiply 4 and -\frac{1}{2} to get -2.
4-4t=-20-2x_{2}
Use the distributive property to multiply -2 by 10+x_{2}.
-20-2x_{2}=4-4t
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-2x_{2}=4-4t+20
Add 20 to both sides.
-2x_{2}=24-4t
Add 4 and 20 to get 24.
\frac{-2x_{2}}{-2}=\frac{24-4t}{-2}
Divide both sides by -2.
x_{2}=\frac{24-4t}{-2}
Dividing by -2 undoes the multiplication by -2.
x_{2}=2t-12
Divide 24-4t by -2.
