Solving
20 + 4x = -10 + 6x
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-6x' to each side of the equation.
20 + 4x + -6x = -10 + 6x + -6x
Combine like terms: 4x + -6x = -2x
20 + -2x = -10 + 6x + -6x
Combine like terms: 6x + -6x = 0
20 + -2x = -10 + 0
20 + -2x = -10
Add '-20' to each side of the equation.
20 + -20 + -2x = -10 + -20
Combine like terms: 20 + -20 = 0
0 + -2x = -10 + -20
-2x = -10 + -20
Combine like terms: -10 + -20 = -30
-2x = -30
Divide each side by '-2'.
x = 15
Simplifying
x = 15
