First, distribute 5 into the parentheses:
[tex]10x - 30 + 20 = 10[/tex]
Combine like terms:
[tex]10x - 10 = 10[/tex]
Isolate x by adding 10 to both sides:
[tex]10x = 20[/tex]
Divide both side by 10:
[tex]x = 2[/tex]
D is the right answer.

Equation:  5(2x - 6) + 20 = 10


Simplify both sides of equation:
5(2x - 6) + 20 = 10

(5)(2x) + (5)(- 6) + 20 = 10   (Distribute)

10x +   - 30 + 20 = 10

(10x) + (- 30 + 20) = 10   (Combine Like terms)

10x +   - 10 = 10

10x - 10 = 10


Add 10 to both sides:
10x - 10 + 10 = 10 + 10

10x = 20



Divide both sides by 10:

10x/10 = 20/10
x  =  2



Answer: x = 2





Hope that helps!!!! ( answer: Letter Choice (D), x = 2
