Answer:
x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3(x - 10) = - 4
1/3x - 10/3 = - 4
1/3x = -4 + 10/3
1/3x = -2/3
x = -2/3 · 3
x = -2
Answer:
x=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
First use distributive property
1/3*x and 1/3*-10
=1/3x-10/3=-4
Then add 10/3 on both sides so x can be by itself
=1/3x=-4+10/3
Then add -4 and 10/3
=1/3x=-2/3
Then multiply each side by the reciprocal of 1/3 which is 3/1
x=-2
