Answer:

9.600

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

5*(x-10)-(-2)=0

5x - 48  = 0

Add  48  to both sides of the equation :

                     5x = 48

Divide both sides of the equation by 5:

                    x = 48/5 = 9.600
