is solved as follows. Supply the correct numbers to complete the solution.(1 point)
10x+13=−12
10x=

Subtract 13 from both sides.
x=

Divide both sides by 10.

Answer 1

To solve the equation \( 10x + 13 = -12 \):

1. **Subtract 13 from both sides:**
\[
10x + 13 - 13 = -12 - 13
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
10x = -25
\]

2. **Divide both sides by 10:**
\[
x = \frac{-25}{10}
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
x = -2.5
\]

So the completed steps are:
- \( 10x = -25 \)
- \( x = -2.5 \)
