2(x - 1) = 10
First, divide both sides by 2. / Your problem should look like: \(x - 1 = \frac{10}{2}\)
Second, simplify \(\frac{10}{2}\) to 5. / Your problem should look like: \(x - 1 = 5\)
Third, add 1 to both sides. / Your problem should look like: \(x = 5 + 1\)
Fourth, add 5 + 1 to get 6. / Your problem should look like: \(x = 6\)
Answer: x = 6
