Solve the equation. Check your solution.
20x-2=36x +10

x = -

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

20x - 2 = 36x + 10 ( subtract 36x from both sides )

- 16x - 2 = 10 ( add 2 to both sides )

- 16x = 12 ( divide both sides by - 16 )

x = = -

As a check

Substitute this value into the equation and if both sides are equal then it is the solution.

left side = 20 × - - 2 = - 15 - 2 = - 17

right side = 36 × - + 10 = - 27 + 10 = - x17

Since both sides are equal then x = - is the solution

its kind of blurry. can you put a clearer pic?
