    No solution

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Actually, you have only one equation here. We will solve it for x.

    Performing the indicated multiplication, we obtain:

    10-2 (2x+1) = 4 (x-2) = > 10 - 4x - 2 = 4x - 8, or 10 - 2 = - 8. This can never be true, so this equation has no solution.

    Answer: x = 2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    10 - 2 (2x + 1) = 4 (x - 2)

    10 - 4x - 2 = 4x - 8 distributed - 2 into 2x + 1 and 4 into x - 2

    8 - 4x = 4x - 8 added like terms (10 - 2 = 8) on left side

    8 = 8x - 8 added 4x to both sides

    16 = 8x added 8 to both sides

    2 = x divided 8 from both sides
