You can put this solution on YOUR website!
First thing you want to do is isolate the q on one side. Move everything over to the left. You should get something like this:
-4q-10q=10-3
You just combine the q's together and then solve.
-14q=7
q=-2
You can check by plugging -2 back in for q to make sure the equation makes sense.
Hope this helps!
