Determine the following equation pls help

subtract a constant from both sides

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step in solving an equation like this is to get the coefficients and variables by themselves, and to do that, you must separate the coefficients (numbers being multiplied by a variable) from the constant (numbers not being multiplied by a variable). You do this by subtracting the constant from both sides of the equation to ensure that they are equal (you subtract -10 from both sides here (adding 10 to both sides)).

b.an increase in a causes b to decrease
