Question 716561
{{{10x-2(2x1)=8+2(x-1)}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{10x-4x=8+2x-2}}} Distribute.



{{{6x=8+2x-2}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{6x=2x+6}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{6x-2x=6}}} Subtract {{{2x}}} from both sides.



{{{4x=6}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{x=(6)/(4)}}} Divide both sides by {{{4}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.



{{{x=3/2}}} Reduce.

Answer:


So the solution is {{{x=3/2}}}
