To solve the equation \(-8 - 3x = 10\), you can follow these steps:
Step 1: Add 8 to both sides of the equation to isolate the term with \(x\). \[ -3x = 10 + 8 \] \[ -3x = 18 \]
Step 2: Divide both sides by -3 to solve for \(x\). \[ x = \frac{18}{-3} \] \[ x = -6 \]
So you can fill in the blanks as follows:
Step 1: Add 8 to both sides of the equation.
Step 2: Divide both sides by -3.
For Question 2, the answer is: x = -6.
