4x+4x-10=x-3-\left(8-x\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by 2x-5.
8x-10=x-3-\left(8-x\right)
Combine 4x and 4x to get 8x.
8x-10=x-3-8-\left(-x\right)
To find the opposite of 8-x, find the opposite of each term.
8x-10=x-3-8+x
The opposite of -x is x.
8x-10=x-11+x
Subtract 8 from -3 to get -11.
8x-10=2x-11
Combine x and x to get 2x.
8x-10-2x=-11
Subtract 2x from both sides.
6x-10=-11
Combine 8x and -2x to get 6x.
6x=-11+10
Add 10 to both sides.
6x=-1
Add -11 and 10 to get -1.
x=\frac{-1}{6}
Divide both sides by 6.
x=-\frac{1}{6}
Fraction \frac{-1}{6} can be rewritten as -\frac{1}{6} by extracting the negative sign.
