We can simplify the left-hand side of the equation by combining like terms:

-3x - 7x = -10x

So our equation becomes:

-10x = -60

To solve for x, we want to get x by itself on one side of the equation. We can do this by dividing both sides by -10:

-10x / -10 = -60 / -10

x = 6

Therefore, the answer is C, 6.

Solve - −3x−7x=−60- 3 x - 7 x = - 60−3x−7x=−60
