x=10

It can't be right.

Substitute 10 for x in your problem. 10 + 10 does NOT = 1

x + 10 = 1
Subtract 10 from both sides of the equation.
x+x=1
x=1
Nope.

1 + 1 = 2 (not 1)
okay can you please write out the equation so I can solve it because I'm not sure how its supposed to look.
10-9???
Not 10 - 9

x + 10 = 1

Subtract 10 from both sides of the equation.

x = 1 - 10

x = -9
thanks
You're welcome.
