    X = 28

    Step-by-step explanation:

    multiply the parenthesis by - 2 to get

    -6x + 18 + 5x = - 10

    collect the like terms, - 6 + 5x

    -x + 18 = - 10

    subtract 18 from both sides to get X alone

    -x = - 10 - 18

    -x = - 28

    change the signs

    x = 28

    x = 28

    Step-by-step explanation:

    distribute the parenthesis on the left side by - 2

    - 6x + 18 + 5x = - 10

    - x + 18 = - 10 (subtract 18 from both sides)

    - x = - 28 (multiply both sides by - 1)

    x = 28
