Answer:
x=[tex]\frac{25}{6}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply the [tex]2x*\frac{4}{5}[/tex] to equal [tex]\frac{8x}{5}[/tex]+8=4x-2
then get the x's on the same side
[tex]\frac{8x}{5}-4x=-10[/tex]
then solve for x by getting a common denominator of 5 with the x's
[tex]\frac{8x}{5}-\frac{20x}{5}=-10[/tex]
multiply both sides by 5 to get rid of the common dominator to equal
[tex]8x-20x=-50\\-12x=-50[/tex]
then divide by -12
[tex]x=\frac{50}{12}[/tex]
which reduces to 25/6
