6x+60-5x=7x
Use the distributive property to multiply 6 by x+10.
x+60=7x
Combine 6x and -5x to get x.
x+60-7x=0
Subtract 7x from both sides.
-6x+60=0
Combine x and -7x to get -6x.
-6x=-60
Subtract 60 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=\frac{-60}{-6}
Divide both sides by -6.
x=10
Divide -60 by -6 to get 10.
