    x = - 48

    Step-by-step explanation:

    4x + 2 = 5 (x + 10)

    expand the 5 (x+10)

    4x + 2 = 5x + 50

    -2 both sides

    4x + 2 - 2 = 5x + 50 - 2

    simplify

    4x = 5x + 48

    -5x both sides

    4x - 5x = 5x + 48 - 5x

    simplify

    -x = 48

    : (-1) both sides

    -x : (-1) = 48 : (-1)

    simplify

    x = - 48

    The answer is x = - 48.
