To solve the equation \(10x + 13 = -12\), we need to follow the steps and fill in the numbers accordingly.

  1. Start from the original equation: \[ 10x + 13 = -12 \]

  2. Subtract 13 from both sides: \[ 10x = -12 - 13 \] Simplifying the right side: \[ 10x = -25 \]

  3. Next, divide both sides by 10: \[ x = \frac{-25}{10} \] Simplifying gives: \[ x = -2.5 \]

So, the complete solution looks like this:

\[ 10x + 13 = -12 \] \[ 10x = -25 \] \[ x = -2.5 \]

Thus, the completed solution is:

  1. \(10x = -25\)
  2. \(x = -2.5\)
the cubtrac 13 question isnt correct

I apologize for any confusion in my previous messages. Let’s carefully go through the steps to solve the equation \(10x + 13 = -12\) once more:

  1. Start with the original equation: \[ 10x + 13 = -12 \]

  2. Subtract 13 from both sides: \[ 10x = -12 - 13 \]

  3. Simplify the right side: \[ -12 - 13 = -25 \] So, we have: \[ 10x = -25 \]

  4. Now, divide both sides by 10: \[ x = \frac{-25}{10} \] Simplifying this fraction gives: \[ x = -2.5 \]

So the correct steps are:

  1. \(10x = -25\)
  2. \(x = -2.5\)
