    -16/3 = x

    Step-by-step explanation:

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

    Distribute

    3x - 6 + 4x = 10x + 10

    Combine like terms

    7x - 6 = 10x + 10

    Subtract 7x from each side

    7x-7x-6 = 10x-7x + 10

    -6 = 3x+10

    Subtract 10 from each side

    -6-10 = 3x+10-10

    -16 = 3x

    Divide each side by 3

    -16/3 = 3x/3

    -16/3 = x
