U mean solve for a?

10=4(3a+2)

10=(4)(3a)+(4)(2)(Distribute)

10=12a+8

Flip the equation.

12a+8=10

Subtract 8 from both sides.

12a+8−8=10−8

12a=2

 Divide both sides by 12.

12a/12=2/12

a=1/6

10=4(3a+2)
1: first you distribute the 4 to 3a and 2 (4*3a & 4*2)

10=12a+8

2: subtract the 8 from both sides

2=12a

3: divide the both sides by 12

1/6=1
