First, we want to isolate the variable x on one side of the equation. To do this, we need to add 8 to both sides:
-3x - 8 + 8 = 10 + 8
Simplifying:
-3x = 18
Next, we want to get x alone by dividing both sides by -3:
-3x ÷ -3 = 18 ÷ -3
Simplifying:
x = -6
Therefore, the solution is x = -6.
-3x - 8 + 8 = 10 + 8
Simplifying:
-3x = 18
Next, we want to get x alone by dividing both sides by -3:
-3x ÷ -3 = 18 ÷ -3
Simplifying:
x = -6
Therefore, the solution is x = -6.
