    x=2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    2.5 (6x-4) = 10+4 (1.5+0.5x)

    Distribute

    15x - 10 = 10 + 6 + 2x

    Combine like terms

    15x - 10 = 16+2x

    Subtract 2x

    13x - 10 = 16

    Add 10

    13x = 16+10

    13x = 26

    Divide by 13

    13x/13 = 26/13

    x = 2

    x=2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    2.5 (6x-4) = 10+4 (1.5+0.5x)

    Distribute.

    2.5*6x-2.5*4=10+4*1.5+4*0.5x

    15x-10=10+6+2x

    Combine like terms.

    15x-10=16+2x

    Add 10 to both sides

    15x-10+10=16+10+2x

    15x=26+2x

    Subtract 2x from both sides.

    15x-2x=26+2x-2x

    13x=26

    Divide both sides by 13

    x=2
