    x=-4

    Step-by-step explanation:

    -3 (7-2x) + 3=8x-10

    Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

    -3 (7-2x) + 3=8x-10

    (-3) (7) + (-3) (-2x) + 3=8x+-10 (Distribute)

    -21+6x+3=8x+-10

    (6x) + (-21+3) = 8x-10 (Combine Like Terms)

    6x+-18=8x-10

    6x-18=8x-10

    Step 2: Subtract 8x from both sides.

    6x-18-8x=8x-10-8x

    -2x-18=-10

    Step 3: Add 18 to both sides.

    -2x-18+18=-10+18

    -2x=8

    Step 4: Divide both sides by - 2.

    -2x

    -2

    =

    8

    -2

    x=-4

    -4

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

    -3 (7-2x) + 3=8x-10

    (-3) (7) + (-3) (-2x) + 3=8x+-10 (Distribute)

    -21+6x+3=8x+-10

    (6x) + (-21+3) = 8x-10 (Combine Like Terms)

    6x+-18=8x-10

    6x-18=8x-10

    Step 2: Subtract 8x from both sides.

    6x-18-8x=8x-10-8x

    -2x-18=-10

    Step 3: Add 18 to both sides.

    -2x-18+18=-10+18

    -2x=8

    Step 4: Divide both sides by - 2.
