This is simply a matter of gathering like terms:
3 - 4q = 10q + 10
-4q= 10q + 10 - 3 = 10q +7
-14q = 7
q = -7/14 = -0.5
Done.

3 - 4q = 10q + 10
3 - 4q + 4q = 10q + 10 + 4q
3 = 14q + 10
3 - 10 = 14q + 10 - 10
- 7 = 14q
- 7 / 14 = 14q / 14
- 7 / 14 = q
- 1 / 2 = q
- 0.5 = q
The answer is q = - 0.5
- - - - - - -s-

= -1/2q
3 - 4q = 10q +10
+4q +4q
3 = 14q+10
-10 -10
-7 = 14q
/14 /14
-1/2 =q

-4q-10q=10-3
-14q=7
q= 7/(-14)
q= (-1/2)

-4q-10q = 10-3
-14q = 7
q = 7/-14
q = 1/2
