Divide both sides of the equation by 2. Dividing 0 by any non-zero number is 0. Hope this helps.

The first step is to combine like terms:

So start with the x's:

To get the -4x to the other side, add 4x to both sides.

That makes the equation:

10x - 2 = 2

Then do the same with the -2, add 2 to both sides.

10x = 4

x= 2/5 or x=.40

Hope this helps!
