Which is a solution to the equation

-2x + 10 = -30

A -40
B. -10
C. 15
D: 20

1 answer

To solve the equation -2x + 10 = -30, you need to isolate the variable x.

First, subtract 10 from both sides of the equation:
-2x + 10 - 10 = -30 - 10
-2x = -40

Next, divide both sides of the equation by -2 to solve for x:
-2x/-2 = -40/-2
x = 20

Therefore, the solution to the equation -2x + 10 = -30 is D. 20.
