<PRE><B>Question 224600</B>
Can you please simplify this equation for x:


{{{10+bx=b-4}}}


Step 1.  Subtract 10 from both sides of the equation


{{{10+bx-10=b-4-10}}}


{{{bx=b-14}}}


Step 2.  Divide by b to both sides of the equation


{{{bx/b=(b-14)/b}}}


{{{x=(b-14)/b}}}


Step 3.  ANSWER:  {{{x=(b-14)/b}}}


I hope the above steps and explanation were helpful.
