Solve for x rounded to the nearest hundredth: 10 - 3x = 5

x = 5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

You ALWAYS want your term to be by itself!! So what you need to do is move your constant away from it.

Step 1: Adjust as needed, subtract 10 from both sides of your equation. It should end up like this.

-3x = 5 - 10

Step 2: Solve as needed before continuing equation.

-3x = -5

Step 3: Now you need to get your term by itself. You should divide -3 on both sides of your equation so you should get something like this.

x = -5 / -3

Step 4: You're basically done now! Just simplify! NEGATIVES CROSS EACH OTHER OUT!!!

x = 5/3 OR 1.6

KEY:

Negative and Negative = Positive

Negative and Positive = Negative

Positive and Positive = Positive

da freeck kinda math is this just drop out
