Verified Answer :

2(4x-11)=10 
a. Distribute 2
2(4x-11)=10 >> 8x-22=10
b. Get the unknown variable by itself (add 22 on both sides)
8x-22=10 >> 8x=32
    +22 +22
c. Get the variable to equal to 1 or x (Divide 8 on both sides)
8x=32 >> x =4

8x/8 (so it can equal to 1x) = 32/8

tip: x = 1x

Answer: x = 4

2(4x-11) = 10
8x - 22 = 10                  Distribute.
8x = 32                         Add 22 to each side.
