Calculate
−4(x−1)
Apply the distributive property
−4x−(−4×1)
Any expression multiplied by 1 remains the same
−4x−(−4)
If a negative sign or a subtraction symbol appears outside parentheses, remove the parentheses and change the sign of every term within the parentheses
−4x+4
10−4x+4

−4x+4
10−4x+4
Add the numbers
14−4x
14−4x=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−4x=0−14
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−4x=−14
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
4x=14
Divide both sides
44x=414
Divide the numbers
x=414
Solution
x=27
