Answer:

x=-52 and -52=x

Explanation:

Addition property of equality is adding the same number to both sides of an equation does not change the equation.

a+c=b+c

Subtraction property of equality is subtracting the same number from both sides of an equation does not change the equation.

a-c=b-c

subtract by 2 both sides of an equation.

x+2-2=-50-2

simplify.

-50-2=-52

50+2=52

52-2=50

x=-52

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Answer:

x = -52

Explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step:

x + 2 = -50

Subtract 2 from both sides:

x + 2 - 2 = -50 - 2

x = -52

So therefore that is how you found your answer: x= -52
