Answer 1

Let's solve the equation step by step and fill in the blanks.

The given equation is:

\[ 10x + 13 = -12 \]

1. Subtract 13 from both sides:

\[ 10x = -12 - 13 \] \[ 10x = -25 \]

2. Divide both sides by 10:

\[ x = \frac{-25}{10} \] \[ x = -2.5 \]

Now, let's fill in the answer in the format provided:

• \( 10x = -25 \) (after subtracting 13 from both sides)
• \( x = -2.5 \) (after dividing both sides by 10)

So the completed solution is:

\[ 10x + 13 = -12 \]

\[ 10x = -25 \]

\[ x = -2.5 \]
