Question

−x+10=−5

Please help and include step by step.

Answer 1

Step by Step:

Step 1.) Subract 10 from both sides.

Step 2.) Divide each side by one

answer: x=15

Answer 2

Start by subtracting 10 from both sides to get
`-x` alone.

`-x` + 10 = -5

`-x` + 10 - 10 = -5 -10

`-x` = -15

Now divide each side by 1 to get rid of the negative.

`-x` = -15

`(-x)/(-1) = (-15)/(-1)`

`x` = 15

This means that in the equation
`-x` is 15.

If you want to check if that's correct just plugin 15 for
`-x` into the equation.

`-x` + 10 = -5

-15 + 10 = -5 ✓
`correct`
