if... X + 2 + (3X - 10) = 16... you can go through the following steps to find a solution... remember though that any change you make to one side of the equation you must also make to the other side of the equation. So first removed the 2 by taking 2 away from both sides of the equation... X + (3X -10) = 14 ... then removed the 10 by adding 10 to each side of the equation... X + 3X = 24... Now add the two values of X together... 4X = 24.. divided both sides by 4 which gives you... X = 6
