the equation 10x + 13 = -12 solved as follows. supply the correct numbers to complete the solution 10x = __ subtract 13 to both sides x= __ divide both sides by 10

1 answer

The equation can be solved as follows:

10x + 13 = -12

Subtract 13 from both sides:

10x = -12 - 13
10x = -25

Now, divide both sides by 10:

x = -25/10

Simplifying the right side gives:

x = -5/2 or x = -2.5
