Answer:

The answer is letter B.

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]3x - 2 = 10[/tex]

(Add 2 to both sides)

[tex]3x - 2 + 2 = 10 + 2[/tex]

So the result is,

[tex]3x = 12[/tex]

(Then divide both sides by 3)

[tex] \frac{3x}{3} = \frac{12}{3} [/tex]

Then the answer is,

[tex]x = 4[/tex]

Hope it helps
