The equation 10x + 13 = -12 is solved as follows. Supply the correct numbers to complete the solution.

Question

10x + 13 = -12

10x=__ subtract 13 from both sides
x=__ divide both sides by 10

Answer 1

To complete the solution, we need to follow the steps given:

Step 1: Subtract 13 from both sides:
10x + 13 - 13 = -12 - 13
10x = -25

Step 2: Divide both sides by 10:
(10x)/10 = (-25)/10
x = -2.5

Therefore, the correct numbers to complete the solution are:
10x = -25
x = -2.5
