2x-6=-10
To solve this problem, there are a few basic steps:

1. Let's start with the equation itself: 2x-6=-10

2. To solve for x, first you have to isolate it. So you have to add 6 to the other side of the equation.
2x=-10+6

3. Now the equation is: 2x=-4

4. To get x by itself, you have to divide the 2 on the other side of the equation.
x=-4/2

5. Divide as usual: x=-2
