Question 771145
{{{10-3(x+2)=8}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{10-3x-6=8}}} Distribute.



{{{-3x+4=8}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{-3x=8-4}}} Subtract {{{4}}} from both sides.



{{{-3x=4}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{x=(4)/(-3)}}} Divide both sides by {{{-3}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.



{{{x=-4/3}}} Reduce.

Answer:


So the solution is {{{x=-4/3}}}
