10) If 2 (x + 3) = x + 10, then x equals

S

Answer: x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

2 (x+3) = x+10

2x+6 = x+10 Distribute 2 to x & 3

x+6 = 10 Simplify by subtracting x from both sides

x = 4 Last subtract 6 from both sides

(check answer by substituting x with 4, it should be correct if it's 14 = 14)
