Solve for x: −5|x + 1| = 10

x = 0
x = −3 and x = 1

-5|x + 1|=10

We had to multiply by -1 from your sides ... I would show you what I meant but its not letting me... so I did this instead

-5(-1) = 5
10(-1) = -10

This equation doesn't have any solution

So, No Solution (option D. )would be your answer!

good luck!
