Divide both sides by 15: -2x +6 = -8 + 10x
Add 2x to both sides: 6 = -8 + 12x
Add 8 to both sides: 14 = 12x
Divide both sides by 12: 14/12 = x
Reduce the fraction: 7/6 = x
Answer: x = 7/6
Add 2x to both sides: 6 = -8 + 12x
Add 8 to both sides: 14 = 12x
Divide both sides by 12: 14/12 = x
Reduce the fraction: 7/6 = x
Answer: x = 7/6
