To solve the equation |x + 15| = 10, we need to consider two cases: when the expression inside the absolute value is positive and when it is negative.

Case 1: x + 15 is positive

If x + 15 is positive, then the equation becomes x + 15 = 10.

Solve for x:

x + 15 = 10

x + 15 - 15 = 10 - 15

x = -5
