Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Alright, lets get started.
The given equation is :
[tex]-2(x+3)=-10[/tex]
If we divide the equation with -2 in both sides
[tex]\frac{-2(x+3)}{-2}=\frac{-10}{-2}[/tex]
[tex](x+3)=5[/tex]
[tex]x+3=5[/tex]
Subtract 3 in both sides
[tex]x+3-3=5-3[/tex]
[tex]x=2[/tex]
So, the first step of simplifying equation is divide equation with -2. : Answer
