Answer:
[tex]x = - 2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Simplify 1/3 ( x - 10) to x-10/3.
[tex] \frac{x - 10}{3} = - 4[/tex]
2) Multiply both sides by 3.
[tex]x - 10 = - 4 \times 3[/tex]
Simplify 4 × 3 to 12.
[tex]x - 10 = - 12[/tex]
4) Add 10 to both sides.
[tex]x = - 12 + 10[/tex]
5) Simplify -12 + 10 to -2.
[tex]x = - 2[/tex]
So, therefor, the answer is, x = -2.
