Solving for x.
Subtract 10 from both sides
7x + 10 - 10 = 10x - 6 - 10
Then simplify your equation
7x = 10x - 16
Then subtract 10x from both sides
7x - 10x = 10x - 16 - 10x
Then simplify
-3x = -16
Divide both sides by -3
-3x = -16
__ __
-3 -3
Then simplify which your answer would be
x = 16/3
Reason being that it turns into a positive because negative divided by negative results in a positive.
