Answer:

x=-58/15

Step-by-step explanation:

distribute first 10-2.5x+12=21-10x-28

Simplify(add the numbers) 22-2.5x=-7-10x

move the variable to the left side 22-2.5x+10x=-7

move the constant to the right side -2.5x+10x=-7-22

simplify like terms 7.5x=-29

divide by 7.5                       x=-58/15

alternate forms are x=-3 13/15                or  x=-3.86
