The value of x from the given equation is -1

Given the equation expressed as:

[tex]3(x - 10) - 5x = 2x - 26[/tex]

Expand using the distributive law as shown:

3x - 3(10) - 5x = 2x - 26

3x - 30 - 5x = 2x - 26

Collect the like terms to have:

3x - 5x - 2x = -26 + 30

-2x - 2x = -26 + 30

Simplify the result by addition and subtraction:

-4x = 4

Divide both sides by -4 (Division property of equality)

-4x/-4 = 4/-4

x = -1

Hence the value of x from the given equation is -1
