-4x-2(8x+1)=2x+10
-4x-16x-2
=20-2
-20x-2=2x+10
-20x-2+2=2x+10+2
-20x=2x+12
-20x-2x=2x+12-2x
-22x=12
-22\(\frac{-22x}{-22}\)=\(\frac{12}{22}\)
x=\(\frac{-6}{11}\)

(Easier)
-4x-2(8x+1)=-(-2x-10)
-4x-16x-2 = 2x + 10
-20x-2 = 2x+10
subtract 2x and add 2 to both sides
-22x=12
divide -22 to both sides
x= -0.54 (Repeated)
