You asked:

Solve the equation \(-\left( 3 \cdot \left(-x + 2\right) \right) - 5 x + 8 = 4 \cdot \left(x + 1\right) + 10\) for the variable \(x\).

MathBot Answer:

The solution is: \[x = -2\]


\[\begin{aligned}-\left( 3 \cdot \left(-x + 2\right) \right) - 5 x + 8 &= 4 \cdot \left(x + 1\right) + 10\\2 - 2 x &= 4 x + 14\\- 6 x &= 12\\x &= -2\end{aligned}\]
