Okay so you need to start off by using the distributive property, meaning you are going to multiply -2 by both items within the parentheses. this gives you -2x + 10 = -14. from here you want to isolate x, so you’ll subtract both sides by 10 to move it to the other side. this gives you -2x=-24. then you’ll divide both sides by -2 to completely isolate x. this gives you x=12. does that make sense?
