Question
Solve for x.
−43x+2=10(1 point)
x=

To solve this two-step linear equation, we need to get x by itself on one side of the equation.

First, let's simplify the equation by distributing 10 to both terms inside the parentheses:

-43x + 2 = 10

Now, let's isolate the variable x by subtracting 2 from both sides of the equation:

-43x = 10 - 2

Simplifying further:

-43x = 8

Finally, we can solve for x by dividing both sides of the equation by -43:

x = 8 / -43

This gives us the solution:

x = -8/43
