1. Remove constant-4x + 6 = -10Balance both sides. left side right side = -4x + 6-10-4x = -16x = _Undo the visible number.Undo the visible number.
2. Divide coefficient-4x + 6 = -10Balance both sides. left side right side = -4x-16-16 / -4 = 4x = _Divide by the x coefficient.Divide by the x coefficient.
3. Check-4x + 6 = -10Balance both sides. left side right side = x4x = 4x = 4Substitute the answer back.Substitute the answer back.
