To solve the equation \(-6x - 10 = 20\), follow these steps: 1. Add 10 to both sides of the equation to isolate the term with \(x\): \[ -6x - 10 + 10 = 20 + 10 \] This simplifies to: \[ -6x = 30 \] 2. Next, divide both sides by -6 to solve for \(x\): \[ x = \frac{30}{-6} \] This simplifies to: \[ x = -5 \] So, the solution is \(x = -5\).

To solve the equation \(-6x - 10 = 20\), follow these steps:

Add 10 to both sides of the equation to isolate the term with \(x\):

\[ -6x - 10 + 10 = 20 + 10 \]

This simplifies to:

\[ -6x = 30 \]
Next, divide both sides by -6 to solve for \(x\):

\[ x = \frac{30}{-6} \]

This simplifies to:

\[ x = -5 \]

So, the solution is \(x = -5\).
