Step-by-step explanation:

Well... Dario is at -40 feet. So the difference would be 10 feet.  I don't really know how you would write that equation. But I hope this helped.

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x+2=2x+12

step 1: subtract 2x from both sides.

4x+2−2x=2x+12−2x

2x+2=12

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides.

2x+2−2=12−2

2x=10

step 3: divide both sides by 2.

2x

2

=

x=5
