4x + 2 = -10x - 20. i have racked my brain about this one.

x = -11/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by combining like terms:  6x = -22

Then divide both sides by 6 to isolate x:

x = -11/3

x = -11/3

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x + 2 = -10x - 20

Add 10x to each side

-4x+10x + 2 = -10x+10x - 20

6x+2 = -20

Subtract 2 from each side

6x+2-2 = -20 -2

6x = -22

Divide by 6

6x/6 = -22/6

x = -11/3

step-by-step explanation:

you can add the two numbers and divide the result by 2. or you can find the gap between the two numbers and add half of this to the smaller number.
