It is not for algebraic solution - in Algebra, there are no methods solving such equations.


Use either your graphics calculator or online tools to get approximate numerical solutions.


For example, you may use an online solver https://www.desmos.com/calculator


Print there  y = 5%5E%28sin%28x%29%29+-+5x+%2B+10.


Calculator will provide the plot, and you can identify the root  x = -2.04787 there (an approximate value).   ANSWER

Solved.
